My 4 year old son has loved this book since he was a little guy.  The illustrations have always managed to capture his attention long before the words did.  The story gives his 4 year old mind something to think about when faced with tough decisions...whatever they may be at 4!  Great book! Can't wait for Freckles next adventure.  I've heard there is a Freckles stuffed animal but I haven't been able to get my hands on it.

This book was perfect for our 4 year old who lost her lifelong playmate and best friend - our 16 year old dog!  It helped answer questions that I was having a hard time answering because I couldn't get through my own tears!

This is a fantastic book.  I highly recommend it for kids with adhd that have trouble fitting in.  My son is younger than the target audience, but I think it was perfect for him.

This book is amazing. Purchased for my foster children and I love it so much! I have to summarize some pages because it does get a little wordy (either that or my kids just have ridiculously short attention spans!) but its a fantastic book!

This is a fantastic book. My second daughter (now aged 7) has global and verbal dyspraxia (motor planning).  We have been to many specialists for diagnosis.  We have been in speech therapy since she was 2 1/2.  We have had some OT, but not as much as is discussed in this book.  We have been searching for ideas and answers, reading books, etc for most of her life.  This book is the absolute best I have read for describing "What is it like, being a sensory-sensitive child and also a parent of a sensory-sensitive child.  A Child whose world is not near as easy as it is for ordinary children."  This book offers insight, relief, excellent advice and reasonable hope that you, as a parent, can make a significant improvement in your child's life.  It is also very readable (many of these types of books are hard to finish).  Thank-you, Thank-you, Thank-you, Karen and Karen.  Well Done.

This book is totally fantastic. I felt bad for Auggie who had a deformed face. The kids who had bullied him are making poor choices. If your kid does this, then tell them to STOP immediately. If your kids just ignores this, then tell them to try to stick up for the child who is being bullied. If your kids stick up for this event, then tell them thank you for being a good child.
Auggie was a kid who had a deformed face :( He is 10 years old. He went his first time going to school, Beacher Prep middle school. When he went, his peers teased him or bullied him or talked behind his back. Then he finally made two friends, Summer and Jack. Towards the end of the book, his peers become friendly to him. Then, It was the graduation day. Read to find out what happens at the end. Read Wonder, you need to read it!

Wonderful book. Helped me a lot. I used to be a really big tiger parent micromanaging everything. One day I woke up and looked at my children and saw how miserable they were. We radically unschooled for a year. It changed my outlook and my family completely. It was amazing. I am no longer unschooling because of circumstances that would make it impossible to access a lot of opportunities. (off grid, and we get snowed in during the winter months). But I wouldn't trade that year for anything.

Melody is like a student I was working as an aide. The book is amazing, I could not put it down. Referred it to colleagues. It should be in every school library and required reading for every one working with a special needs child. I could relate to Melody's aide. I have been there saying yes she can do that. Mainstream teachers tended to think no she cannot.  I understand the frustration.

This book is fabulous. I gave it to my 4 year old nephew and it was perfect.  Interesting, colorful and some basic information.  He loves it!

Without a doubt, one of the greatest, funniest, and most entertaining books for a 4th grader. Kids can't put it down. Even kids that don't want to read! I wish I could give it ten stars!! Excellent book! In fact, we keep buying more to give as gifts!

I wanted to write another review for this book.  I wish every kid could read it.  My daughter was not a reader before this book.  Once she finished this, she went on and read every other book that Lisa Maddock has written about these two guinea pigs,  Teddy and Pip.  She cannot wait for a new book to come out.  We have given copies to friends as gifts.  Children do not need to have guinea pigs at home to relate to these characters.  The book rolls along at a fast pace.  The characters are hysterical! My daughter would get upset when reading time was over for the night.  She couldn't wait to start reading the next day.  Let me stress, she did not like to read!  Free reading for homework at night was a chore for her.  She went through each book so quickly and couldn't wait to get into the next book.  She was an average reader,  however, her reading level jumped as she plowed through these books.  She insisted on reading them to me so I could hear the stories along with her! THANK YOU LISA MADDOCK for writing these wonderful books!

This book is simply amazing. I was first diagnosed when I was five, and didn't really know what AD/HD was other than it meant I was hyper sometimes and couldn't always focus. When I got re-tested at 16, my tester recommended I become more informed about AD/HD, so I bought a few books, and honestly, this is the only one that I ever finished (heck this is the only one that I even read of full chapter of). This book made me realize just how many of my annoying habits weren't my fault and helped improve my self-confidence IMMENSELY. I even lent it to a 12 year old boy after he got diagnosed and he loved it too. I am now a freshman in college and still find myself explaining the science of AD/HD in the same terms this book did. Unfortunately, I lost my copy (ironic, I know)but I am planning on buying a new copy very soon.

This book is amazing.  My 8 yo daughter and I learned so much.  On character day at her school,  she was to dress like a story book character,  she went as Angela Davis. I was expecting a Disney Princess or Monster High character, but she shocked me,  actual treats feel from my eyes with pride.  My little protester.

This is an amazing book about how low people can go and what amazing strength that a young girl can have and what she must overcome. It is basically a story of hope. It was almost impossible to put it down once you start reading it.

This book changed my son's life. My son is 6 years old and I did lots of treatment, biomed, different therapist,  homeopathy, tons of supplements which helped my son but there was something missing. His behavior was getting worse and he started hitting, kicking, screaming, and other uncontrollable behavior so I started to look for answers and I found this book HEALING THE SYMPTOMS KNOWN AS AUTISM.  It is  a must have book in every family. I read the book non-stop and I started to follow the protocol. In a week of using the CD protocol his behavior was less as mentioned by his teacher. He sits still and listens, can stay in the line up, can focus and his attention span got better.  I followed the protocol now for 5 months and he has more language, eye contact is great, had the best summer holiday ever, can go shopping with no problem, more patient and engaged. Took swimming lessons and did great and now registered in Hockey. I know that one day he will recover from Autism. The book gave me hope and the parents who used the protocol before me and successfully recovered their children using the protocol mentioned in the book

My husband is using the protocol for his allergies as he had been going to a Naturopath and spend $$$$$$ but whenever he stops using the homeopathic drop his allergies comes back after a few months. Now he is using the CD protocol and it is clearing his sinus and allergies. He sleeps better, less allergy attack, more energy.  This book is not only for Autism but for the whole family.  Remove the root cause of the problem which is usually pathogens and you gain back your life.  I am also using the protocol for my anemia which I had since I was a child, now I do not have to take iron pills and no more dizziness.

If you didn't get the book, Please do, to help your child and maybe the whole family. No doctors needed, the cheapest, and lots of support from the CD Autism facebook, I always have tears of joy reading all the improvements that the children have following the protocol even in a short period but of course each child is different. Some takes longer and others recovers in a short time. As of this date, there are 100 recovered children plus parents who felt better or regain their health following the Protocol together with their child. Huge thanks to KERRI RIVERA, JIM HUMBLE, ANDREAS KALCHER AND THE MODS at CD autism facebook.
