Children's Picture Book
Date Published: April 15, 2026
Oh, Tal! Not Like That., a new book by autistic actor Tal Anderson and
award-winning Hollywood artist, Michael Richey White, is Book 2 in the Oh,
Tal! series for children.
Tal and the family cat, Winnie are once again taking on the world, and this time, they're doing it at school. Tal starts the school year off excited, but quickly learns that in the classroom, they like kids to follow directions, and to be the same, and do things uniformly. Tal has different ideas, however, and classmates and teachers work hard to teach and model the "right way" to do things.
In the end, they all learn a valuable lesson: that there are more ways than one to get things done, and that expressing yourself authentically leads to good things. Once again, Tal wins over hearts and confirms it's okay to be different, be yourself, and to follow your own path.
About the Author
Tal Anderson is a professional actor, filmmaker, and writer. She is an
advocate for change, using her voice and unique platform as an autistic actor
to support inclusion and authentic representation in front of and behind the
camera in Hollywood. She is best known for her work in the Netflix series
"Atypical" as Sid, but can also be seen and heard in many other productions
including, guest-starring in Season 5 of "Magnum P.I." on NBC, and as the
English voice of Tina in the Disney Plus series, "Team Chocolate." Tal has
always been a storyteller, and as a child could be seen constantly using her
FLIP video camera, or one of several hand-held voice-recorders to record every
day life, or her daily performances of stories/scripts she had made up or
written. It is this love of imagination that led her to acting and filmmaking
as an adult. "Oh, Tal! - Not Today," is Tal's first book. She lives in Los
Angeles with her cat Winifred, where they can both live their best lives and
be their true selves.
