Naughty or Neurodiverse - An Aspie’s Road to Magic

By Angus Baskerville

🌈 Hopeful & Uplifting:

Proof That Misfits Can Fly

Once lost in a world that didn’t understand him, Angus found his voice — and now uses it to inspire thousands.
"I didn’t fit the mould… so I became the spark."

Bullied. Misunderstood. Unstoppable.

From being expelled from three schools and surviving relentless bullying, to discovering a deck of cards that changed his life — Angus Baskerville’s extraordinary journey is anything but ordinary.

Before he became a headline act and an award-winning magician, Angus was a boy battling a world that didn’t understand him. Diagnosed with Autism and ADHD at 15, after years of exclusion, ridicule, and being labelled "the naughty child," he finally found the words — and the magic — to reclaim his story.

This raw, inspiring, and often shocking memoir pulls back the curtain on the hidden struggles of a young mind forced to navigate a system that failed him. But it’s also a story of transformation: of how one boy turned pain into power, and silence into stagecraft.

This is more than a story about autism. It’s a story about resilience, rebellion, and the redemptive power of magic.

Angus Baskerville doesn't just perform illusions — he’s lived through them. And now, he’s ready to reveal the truth.
