About This Book
Reach for this book when your child seems unusually irritable after a busy school day, or when they start covering their ears in crowded places like grocery stores and playgrounds. It is a vital resource for parents of neurodiverse children, particularly those with ADHD, autism, or sensory processing sensitivities, who need help navigating a world that often feels too loud and too fast. The story follows a young girl through her daily routine, from a peaceful morning to the overwhelming 'everythingness' of city life. It beautifully illustrates how sensory overload feels while empowering children to identify their own 'quiet places' and self-soothing techniques. By reading this together, you provide your child with the language to explain their internal experience and the confidence to advocate for their own needs in a healthy, proactive way. It is appropriate for children ages 3 to 8.
