Great Book Reviews

Too Loud, Too Bright, Too Fast, Too Tight

by Sharon Heller
Reviewed by Camille Sackett-Wescott, Occupational Therapist

You must read this book if you know anyone with sensory sensitivities.

Children and adults with sensory defensiveness often feel too overwhelmed to explain their experiences. The many first-hand stories articulate the difficulties of living in an overstimulating world, and how to remedy sensory processing dysfunction.

The Care and Keeping of You

American Girl Library
Reviewed by Shawnee English

I think that the book The Care and Keeping of You is awesome! I love how it talks about all the details. I learned some new things from it.
