Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When Birthday Party Noise Becomes Too MuchDoes your child love joining in but become overwhelmed when a birthday party becomes noisy, bright and busy? This children's book about sensory overload follows Arthur Monkey as music, shouting, a popping balloon and a whistle turn fun into too much.Children can: - Recognise when sounds and activity feel overwhelming- See a caring adult respond without pressure- Explore a quiet corner, slow breathing and calm support- Learn that taking a break does not mean missing the funCreated by neurodivergent parent Nicola Ahern, drawing on her experience raising neurodivergent children, her child psychology study and research, this story is intentionally different. It focuses on a small number of scenes and repeats familiar imagery to reduce visual switching and keep attention on the calming actions. It is specifically designed for neurodivergent and emotionally sensitive children rather than as a conventional picture book with constant scene changes.Arthur's story helps children feel understood, accepted and never too much.
