As a music, movement, and drama teacher for 25 years, Carol Kranowitz observed many out-of-sync preschoolers. To help them become more competent in their work and play, she began to study sensory processing and sensory integration theory. She learned to help identify her young students’ needs and to steer them into early intervention. In writings and workshops in the United States and abroad, she explains to parents, educators, and other early childhood professionals how sensory issues play out—and provides fun and functional techniques for addressing them at home and school.

This delightfully illustrated “chapter book,” geared for 8-to-12-year-olds, tells the charming tale of five family members and their naughty dog (each with a different sensory processing challenge) and how they get in sync after a tough day. The story itself is in larger print to benefit younger readers. Explanations of sensory processing issues are woven throughout the story in smaller type for proficient readers to linger over at leisure.

Everyone with sensory issues will find a character to identify with. Maybe your child is like Darwin, with sensory overresponsivity. Or perhaps you know someone like Betsy and Filibuster, who are sensory seekers. This wonderful book, from the best-selling author of The Out-of-Sync Child and The Out-of-Sync Child Has Fun, is a must-have for every family challenged by sensory processing problems!
