A book dedicated to children with siblings who have SPD or other special needs.
Mia has the unique position of being a middle kid between two siblings with SPD. Some days can be very tough, but she's learned that by slowing down, taking her time, she not only sees what her siblings need that others may miss but she also inspires them to their own calmer place.
This book is based on the author's second child's experiences in this position. The focus is on SPD but the story idea and interactive activity pages can work for any child living with a sibling who has special needs. | |  | | I'm Not Weird, I Have SPD
A story of living with SPD through the perspective of a four-year-old child.
Initially, I wrote this book to validate my daughter, Jaimie's, feelings and to help her see that she wasn't the only one who felt the same way she did. It was never my intention to share our story with the world but when I met other parents with children who also had SPD, I gave them my book as a tool to talk about it--both with their children and to others.
The book can be used to help children with SPD learn about and understand their disorder as well as to help give them the words to explain it to others. It can also be useful to teachers, coaches and other family members to hel | |  | | Just Shut Up and Drive

What would you do if your child suffered with something so severe it affected every aspect of her life?
And what if your cries for help fell on deaf ears at every turn? You'd follow your gut and fight until someone listened. And that's what Chynna Laird did.
When she was just three months old, Jaimie's reactions to people and situations seemed odd. She refused any form of touch, she gagged at smells, she was clutzy and threw herself around and spent most of her day screaming with her hands over her ears and eyes.
By the time she turned two, Jaimie was so fearful of her world they spent most days inside. What was wrong with Chynna's miracle girl? Why wouldn't anyone help her figure it out? Jaimie wasn't "just spirited" as her physician suggested nor did she lack discipline at home. When Jaimie was diagnosed with Sensory Process | |  | | Out Of Sync
One serial killer. One Forensic Psychologist determined to bring him down. Will the secret he knows about her past be what finally breaks her?
Cheyenne McCarthy has two enemies in this world: The environment that constantly bombards her brain with sensory overload and the man who killed her husband. Cheyenne has learned to see her high sensory sensitivities more as a gift by using it to help her to catch serial and other cold-blooded killers. She’s the expert people turn to before these killers strike again because her heightened senses never miss a thing…no matter how minute.

| |  | | White Elephants
Elephant in the middle of the living room. That is one way of explaining how a family walks around the invisible presence of huge problems. Hindsight is what brings the elephant into focus. Somehow, Chynna T. Laird began to see at age five the bulky creature crowding her family. And from that time as the child, Tami, she took on a sense of responsibility to her mother far beyond expectation for her age. Her mother was different than other mothers. Family life in their household was not pretty. No one seemed to notice. No one did anything about it, and Tami wanted someone to do just that. As an adult, Tami took on her first name, Chynna, and took up the challenge to find out what might have helped her mother fight her battle of self-destruction. She couldn't help her mother, but she would consider it worth everything if her family's story helped another.
