Following the success of his first picture book, The Magic Moment,
musician and mindfulness expert Niall Breslin (Bressie) is back
with another important life lesson for young children, beautifully
brought to life by illustrator Sheena Dempsey. When Freddie sees
all the presents his friend Ben gets for his birthday, he feels a
bit sad ... Nana teaches Freddie how to be thankful for everything
he has - together they count all the wonderful things in their
lives. This gratitude trick is a helpful technique for dealing with
the uncomfortable and often confusing feelings of jealousy that
children inevitably encounter. Praise for The Magic Moment, by the
same author 'The sort of book that could be genuinely helpful to an
anxious child' THE IRISH TIMES 'Teaches children a really simple
and effective mindfulness technique for managing big feelings' DR
MALIE COYNE 'A book with an important message' IRISH INDEPENDENT

'There's a new pre-school politeness tsar in town.' The Times
Having Autism can sometimes make school life challenging. Loud
noises can hurt a child's ears as the volume can be turned up much
louder in their ears. If a child gets upset, lining toys up or
building towers can help calm them down. Looking at pictures
instead of words can help with understanding the timetable better.
Some foods can hurt their tummy so special foods are packed in
their lunch box. If they do not speak to you it is not because they
don't want to be your friend, they may struggle with words or
prefer playing alone. Their skin can be extra sensitive so sand
sticking to their hands or labels in their clothes can make them
feel extra uncomfortable and itchy. It is important for us to be
kind to each other every day and understand that we are all
different and sometimes need an extra helping hand from our
friends. Thank you for being a good friend and for being Autism
Aware and showing that you care.
