Katie Wendroth is the creator of The Whole World of Daryl & Barnaby, an imaginative and heartfelt children’s series celebrating neurodiversity, friendship, kindness, and the importance of belonging. Through stories filled with adventure, emotion, and discovery, Katie creates a world where children can see themselves represented, feel understood, and recognize that their differences are meaningful strengths. The journeys of Daryl and Barnaby explore themes of communication, self-expression, confidence, empathy, and the many wonderful ways people experience the world. Inspired by a passion for helping children and families connect, Katie is building more than a book series. The Whole World of Daryl & Barnaby is an expanding universe that includes stories, educational resources, journals, classroom materials, and companion guides designed to support children, caregivers, educators, and communities. Katie believes every child deserves stories that remind them they are valued, they have a voice, and they have a place where they belong.
