Fergus and Delilah is a story about a young girl eager to make friends on her first day at a new park. She slides, swings and dances her way around the park making friends with everyone from "the unique, to the kid who doesnt speak." But one boy keeps shooing her away. Can Delilah make friends with the boy who always plays alone? Fergus & Delilah is a story about acceptance, understanding and inclusion. Autism, disabilities and differences are explored and celebrated.

Erin Buie is a writer, Special Needs Teacher and the author of Fergus & Delilah. Erin is orginally from Canada. She now lives in the Byron Shire, NSW with her young family. For the last 6 years she has been working as a Special Needs teacher in a support unit that caters for a range of disabilities. With her insight and understanding of inclusion and access, she has been able to use her experiences to write her first children’s book, Fergus & Delilah. As a mother of three young children she sees the importance of early education on how we can connect and include others despite our differences.
