Constantine
Tiya and the Minotaur
Tiya and the Minotaur
This is a picture book/bedtime book for children of all ages, though it has been made with Autistic and neurodiverse children in mind. The artwork has been designed in such a way that readers on the spectrum, by and large, find it easy to process. In addition, the author has noticed that there are many young advanced readers who still crave picture books with age-appropriate stories, but want something longer with a more challenging vocabulary. It is also a good tool for older reluctant readers who need to be eased into reading but find novels intimidating or boring and need a hand to get back into the practice of reading for pleasure.
About The Maker: Constantine
About The Maker: Constantine
Constantine previously worked on the children's T.V. show "Pablo" (available in the U.K. through the BBC), and has written four episodes of the second season and was involved in the development of the upcoming stage play, Pablo is about a young autistic boy.
Constantine first started writing seriously in 2010. His son had been diagnosed as Autistic and during this process, Constantine discovered that he was Autistic himself. His son was struggling at school and in an attempt to show him that Autism need not be a barrier to achievement, Constantine enrolled in adult education and tried to better the abysmal grades he had received as a child.
Buoyed up by his success with writing he entered Middlesex University and was astonished when a few years later he received a B.A. with first-class honours in 'creative and media writing.'
He later achieved a creative writing master's degree at Leicestershire University.
