Daisy's Super Sense of touch
A Sensory Processing Story About Getting Dressed
“The seams on Daisy’s school socks,
when she stands give her the jitters.
They move and squish between her toes,
they feel like caterpillars.”
Is your child sensitive to clothing?
Are they bothered by tags and seams?
Daisy’s Super Sense of Touch is a story about a little girl's sensory sensitivities. Bothered by the feeling of her clothing and self-care tasks, Daisy struggles to get dressed during her morning routine.
Jellyfish stinging, crabs nipping, mice scratching,
tigers tearing – Ahhhhh! –
Will the feelings all become too much for Daisy to process? Or can Daisy find a way to get ready for the day?

What The Experts Are Saying
Aria Finds Her Voice, by Sarah Palmer, illustrated by Kylie Box.
If you have a sensitive lamb daughter who is quiet and who sometimes finds it hard to use her voice,
and may be an introvert, this simply divine and beautiful book will become a favourite.
Aria goes in search of her voice and she meets many feathered friends along her path,
who offer her a symbolic gift in the form of their feather. Empowered with newfound traits
of strength, confidence, happiness and trust, Aria feels more hopeful than ever.
While this gorgeous book encourages and inspires self confidence, it also affirms that
it's important to still be your own true self.
I loved this totally delightful book for our sensitive little lambs.
Great work, Sarah and Kylie.
