What happens when a parent's search for answers becomes a mission to help other children feel seen, understood, and celebrated?

What began as a personal family journey evolved into a creative project designed to help children better understand themselves, embrace their differences, and recognize their unique abilities.

About Lynn Greenberg
Lynn Greenberg is a former family law attorney, advocate, and children's author.
She is the co-creator of The Creative Cab Company, an award-winning children's book series designed to help young readers better understand neurodiversity and celebrate the unique qualities that make them who they are.
Through characters such as Robbie the Dyslexic Taxi and Susie the ADHD Taxi, Lynn and her son have created stories that encourage empathy, confidence, and inclusion while helping children recognize that differences can be strengths.
Why This Conversation Matters
Many neurodivergent children struggle not because of who they are, but because they lack understanding, support, or representation.
Lynn's story reminds us that early recognition, compassionate advocacy, and positive representation can make a meaningful difference in a child's life.
When children understand that their differences are not flaws, they are more likely to develop confidence, resilience, and self-acceptance.
Key Takeaway
Every child deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued.
Sometimes the most powerful support begins with listening, trusting your instincts, and helping children understand that being different does not mean being less.
