Ben’s School Daze

Authors: Robyn Sims & Joanne Larcom

A story of being overwhelmed in a sensory world.

This is a story about Ben, a lively and active boy, who finds the sensory experiences within his day to be overwhelming.  Loud noises vibrate through his body and “shoes and socks bother him… they never feel just right”.  This can make it hard for Ben to be a good student.  But don’t worry, his teacher and mum know what to do to help him through his day.

A lovely story for parents, teachers and children to read to help them better understand what it feels like to function everyday in a world that feels overwhelming to the senses.  Information about Sensory Processing Disorder and ideas to be used in the  classroom at the back of the book.
