I absolutely get your point! Though I wasn't referring to kids with SPD, but rather with OEs. And maybe the use of the word "picky" in the book is a bad one. That said, for our son, it would have helped him see that he could conquer his fears and overcome some of his sensitivities. But again, he doesn't have SPD. He just feels things intensely (as do I), and he has "big emotions" (as he calls it). I think for a child like him, the book could help start a useful discussion.

Thanks, though! I'm happy for the discussion. smile

Oh, and we also loved My Fantastic Elastic Brain! First got it out from the library and then purchased it.
