Our world is so noisy! To people with sensory issues, like those on the Autism Spectrum, sometimes these noises are too much for their ears to handle. In this book, Hopaditty gets a tool to use when things around her get too loud. Why we wrote this book: "Hopaditty and the Loud City" is written for everyone who loves, plays with, or goes to school with a child that is on the Autism Spectrum or has a sensory disorder, as well as for children on the Spectrum who have sensory disorders themselves. This story is designed to provide insight into challenges faced by those who struggle with the sensory sensitivities, specifically those related to noise. The book serves as a helpful tool for anyone wanting to learn more about Autism and fostering connections with children on the Spectrum.
