Rachel Schneider and Kelly Dillon (2017) Sensory Like You

“This lovely book fills a big gap. Reassuring, wise, and witty, “Sensory Like You” would be as great a gift for a young child as it would be for a grandparent, teacher, or other adult who maybe doesn’t quite “get it” yet.” -Carol Kranowitz, M.A., author of The Out-Of-Sync Child series.
