Description

Meet Izzy, a feisty first grader, whose behaviour is often misunderstood as she tries to cope with sensory overload in her new surroundings. This brightly illustrated book creates an environment that is accepting of students with sensory modulation difficulties, including many on the autism spectrum. It's a great resource for occupational therapists, teachers, and parents to share with children. Resources for adults at the end of the book include definitions of sensory processing and sensory modulation disorder, suggested discussion questions and lists of related books and web sites.

Author Biography:

Jennifer Veenendall is a school-based occupational therapist in West St. Paul, Minnesota. Working with students with a wide range of abilities, she is especially passionate about creating learning environments that meet students' sensory processing needs. Jennifer received her occupational therapy degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and her master's degree in human development from St. Mary's University of Minnesota. When she is not working, Jennifer enjoys spending time with her family at their cabin, as well as drawing and painting. Jennifer is also the author of Arnie and His School Tools, Sensory Solutions That Build Success. Like Izzy, Arnie has a sensory processing disorder - he is a "mover." His body needs to move, and his hands need to be busy.
