Review
Annie Books are fun to read, provide useful information, allow for empathetic understanding, for those of you, who don't get to understand it from the inside, and those of us, who don't know, that those of you, don't understand it from the inside! We think that everyone feels this way, so we wonder what is wrong with us, and why can't we just be normal... --author's note
It's like Junie B meets attention deficit disorder! Fantastic! --Stacey Con, ESL Teacher
The Annie Books are a must read for any parent, teacher, or student with the challenges of Attention Deficit Disorders. --Janie Caton, Ed.S., School Psychologist
Product Description
A Windy Day with Annie is an early reader. A Windy Day is fun to read, and helps promote understanding for children with Attention Deficits and Asperger's. As a counseling tool, A Windy Day provides the opportunity to discuss a child's feelings about Annie and her daydreaming. Frequently, a young reader will indicate that Annie is "bad" because she doesn't pay attention. Discussing Annie's daydreaming and inattentiveness as a "difference in her brain," instead of being "bad," can help facilitate awareness and empathy in others and self-acceptance in those of us with ADD and AS.
