Max Webster, an inspiring 11-year-old from Melbourne, Australia, has turned his love for wildlife into a mission to help animals in need. Diagnosed with autism, ADHD, and auditory processing disorder, Max wrote and illustrated his own book, Max’s Wild Life, sharing his experiences as a young wildlife carer. His creativity and determination have captured hearts across the country.

Instead of keeping the profits, Max chose to donate all proceeds from his book sales to Animalia Wildlife Shelter, supporting the rescue and rehabilitation of injured and orphaned animals. His efforts not only raised vital funds but also highlighted the incredible contributions neurodiverse children can make when given the chance to shine. Max’s story is a powerful reminder that passion and purpose know no boundaries.
