"Jesse and the Super Sensorific Seashore" A Day in the Life of a Boy With Autism
Hardcover Book Giveaway Hosted by DustinNikki Mommy of Three
Sponsored by Sensory Star
"Jesse's autism is not who he is. He won't let it stop him because he's a whiz at counting and details and all kinds of art. He just needs some help being sensory smart!" At the end of the book there are a couple extra pages that I think are great for understanding the story.
There are questions such as “What is autism?”, “How can I be a friend to a person with autism?”, “What is the picture schedule Jesse used at the beach?”, “What are the little pictures my friend with autism uses?” and “Why would a change in schedule or routine upset my friend with autism?” and there are about 5 more questions.
All of them have answers with an explanation. I think this is great for other kids to better understand autism and their friend with autism. Not only is the story a great story for kids with autism, but also great for other kids that have friends or know someone else with autism. It's a really great story filled with inspiration! Please check out the full review here.

ReplyDeleteOne of my sons is autistic and the would be a teat book for my other on to read!
ReplyDeleteThe colors are really sweet. I love it
ReplyDeleteI like the following about the cover! "That picture is now the cover of the book. Silke is on the spectrum and knows exactly how Jesse felt that day. She explained that her goal was to show how Jesse could be in his own “Sensory Bubble” at times. The little stars and bursts all around him in some of the pictures is a way to describe through the art how autistic people feel." Nice! kristiedonelson(at)gmail(dot)com Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThe cover is the best part; look at all the colors!
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite part is that it's at the seashore. My ex's little boy is autistic and one of his favorite places is in the water.
ReplyDeleteI love opening people's eyes to view things from someone else's perspective! Very good lesson.
ReplyDeletei like all the colors in the illustrations
ReplyDeleteI like the focus of the book to show how an autistic child can adapt to challenges and work through fears and sensory issues.

ReplyDeleteMy child does not have autism, but I believe it is also important to teach her acceptance as we have a lot of friends that do have children with the disorder.
