This isn’t just a children’s book — it’s a grounding, gentle tool for families navigating autism, ADHD, and sensory sensitivity. With its five stories, it carries the emotional and educational depth of multiple books in one, helping you connect with your child when the world feels overwhelming.
Created by Alex Lesage (father, neurodiversity advocate, and the voice behind The Safe Space Series), this softcover book contains 5 immersive second-person stories that place your child inside each moment with calm, validating language. After every story, you’ll find guided reflection questions and parent coaching tips to help you understand what’s happening beneath the behaviour — and connect instead of correct.
Each chapter explores a real sensory challenge, the kinds of moments that hit “too hot, too tight, too bright” for a neurodivergent child:
There are no bright illustrations. No cartoon distractions. Only imagination, presence, and emotional clarity.
Read it slowly. Read it together.
This book bridges the gap between your child’s sensory world and yours — helping them feel understood, and helping you support them with confidence, compassion, and calm.
It’s part bedtime story, part reflection journal, part parent guide — created with warmth and intention.
