Sensitive Sam written by Marla Roth-Fisch is an engaging look at how Sam feels and interprets the world. This is a great book for little kiddos trying to understand why they feel “different” and also good for older kids to grasp sensory processing issues. The author explores many sensory situations including school - which we all know is a biggie with our kiddos. Occupational Therapy is introduced and Sam and his parents learn how to help Sam feel better and more comfortable.

This is an amazing resource for any family. Parents will benefit as well. Specially if you’re overwhelmed and having a hard time understanding how your child might be feeling. Why they’re clothes are irritating them, why they’re having negative behaviours.

The pictures are colorful and fun. You’ll love Sam! I bought my copy on Amazon, but it’s also on the Future Horizon’s website www.fhautism.com.
