Like all social stories I write, full color photographs of real children are used instead of clipart. In my experience, full color photos are more relatable to autistic children, like my son, than clipart. Diverse children are included as much as possible so that every child feels represented.

This social story is EXACTLY what I have been looking for, for my little guy with Autism who just cannot express his bodily feelings! :)

Hyperlexic 4yo loved it!

I downloaded 5 stories in total, and my boy really liked this one and "Interrupting Others". We're in the middle of potty training and this story gave us some language that he's been using. He's still struggling to go #2 on the toilet, but he knows that he is "still learning to listen to my body" Thanks so much for these.

Helps kiddo pay attention to body sensations

My newly 4yo is not good at recognizing hunger, thirst, tiredness, or (most importantly) needing to poop. This story is definitely helpful, although I'm going to have to "sell" it to her a little since it's basically informational, and I would like more description of needing to poop (although it's hard to describe!)
