Notes

Description
Brooke's sister, Lee Ada, is one picky eater! Not even her mother knows what to feed her. She refuses all foods, says "No!" to each one. What will Lee Ada eat when the day is all done? This picture book for picky eaters is for kids and parents alike. Sensory Processing Disorder, also referred to as Sensory Integration Dysfunction, is a neurological disorder most often diagnosed in early childhood. It is not synonymous with learning disabled. Many children diagnosed with SPD are average or above in intellect. Understanding the challenges they face is the first step for caregivers in guiding these children in learning to tolerate their enhanced senses, and ultimately succeed in society. The SPD child must learn to navigate through the wires crossed between their senses and their brain receptors. Symptoms span a wide range between over-sensitive or under-sensitive to stimulation of any or all of their senses. One symptom is the adverse affect food (taste, smell, texture) has on their senses. Often these children are labeled as picky eaters, punished for a condition over which they have little or no control. These children have a small selection of foods (called safe foods) they're able to tolerate, sometimes making mealtimes less than enjoyable. Encouraging them to experience new textures and foods in a safe, unforced way helps the SPD child learn sensory tolerance.
