This book has made my autistic daughter into a superhero, and her younger brother claims he is Super-A too. I wrote the book to help my daughter develop skills in everyday life. Since meeting Thummie the Thumb, she will always give you a thumbs up, and she loves Little Miss Trigger ... who represents the sensory challenges and impuls triggers in the world of a child with Autism or ADHD. She says the book is not good or bad ... it is Super-Great! So I hope your children will enjoy and learn from the books as much as mine have. - Jessica Jensen, Author of the Adrian and Super-A Books & Workbooks at Be My Rails Publishing
Cool book with nice pictures about a family set out on a mission to bake some cakes. One of the children is autistic/ADHD and needs help to stay on track. There were some good and simple strategies to help both the autistic kid and the whole family. Recommended!
I won this book in First reads goodreads giveaway. I enjoyed this book since it breaks down each step while making it understandable for both the parent and child. This book makes it interactive for child, so that the child isn't just sitting hating the story but able to follow along and make a connection.
Really cute book that is great for parents to read to their kids. It is colorful and broken down easily to understand for everyone. I received the book for free through Goodreads First Reads
