A Must Read for all Highly Sensitive Children!
Oliver is a very quiet little boy. He is sensitive and likes
to avoid places that are noisy or crowded, which is a lot of places. Oliver
likes to be by himself, or he thinks he likes to be by himself because it makes
him feel comfortable. What happens when Oliver decides to try something new? And
maybe that might even involve making a new friend too. How will that make him feel? Will Oliver
discover that crowded and noisy places aren’t so bad after all?
This is a wonderful realistic story for a child who is
highly sensitive. And what is a highly sensitive child? This is a type of
person that has an innate trait of high sensory processing sensitivity.
To compliment the story, the illustrations are simple, done
in soft pastel pencils and watercolors, which are calming to the senses. This
sweet enduring story allows any child to have feelings of being overwhelmed in
different situations and understanding that these feelings are common. It can
also help build self-esteem in sensitive children and guide them to learn
coping strategies.
I look forward to seeing more books for highly sensitive
children by My Quiet Adventures!
Recommended for ages 4-6
