Summary

This is a story about sensory differences and how some children experience their world, told from a child's perspective。

The vibration in her feet when she runs, the tap-tap-tap of her fork on the table at mealtime, the trickle of cool water running over her hands---these are the things that calm her jitters down。

This book is for anyone who has ever felt the need for a wiggle, stomp, or squeeze!

Wiggles, Stomps, and Squeezes playfully validates the unique sensory experiences of children, written from their own perspective。 I'm excited for every kid that will see themselves in this beautiful book!" - Mark Loewen, Author of What Does a Princess Really Look Like?

"I have worked in special education for 12 years and have not come across a book that explains these jittery feelings until now。 This book will capture the hearts of families and children with unique needs as well as educate those unfamiliar with sensory differences。" - Bridget Martinez, Special Education Teacher

"I often find myself trying to explain to parents why their child needs wiggles, stomps, and squeezes to get through their day while experiencing sensory input in ways that are different and often more intense。 This is the first book I have come across that provides a very real glimpse into the lived experience of a child with sensory differences。 What a wonderful book that so many families can benefit from!? - Caitlyn Berry, Occupational Therapist

I love this children’s nonfiction book because it tells us from a child’s perspective how they process their senses and what sensory perception means to them。 Sensory perception means something different to everyone。 This book helps explain some unique ways that children process their senses。 And I think that everyone can benefit from this information。I just reviewed Wiggles, Stomps, and Squeezes Calm My Jitters Down by Lindsey Rowe Parker。 #WigglesStompsandSqueezesCalmMyJittersDown #NetGalley

I love this book about the way this child processes sensory information and his need to wiggle, stomp, and receive hugs to calm down。 It's a great way to help children with processing disorders be seen and to teach others about what it feels like。 The illustrations are also fun!

Wonderful book about a child dealing with sensory disorders! The illustrations are so cute。 The illustrator is an autistic artist。 I think this would be a wonderful addition to any library。

My heart is glowing with excitement for the VOICE this book gives to children and families familiar with sensory learning differences! Vivid colors and interesting and dynamic illustrations help readers understand better what life may feel like through the eyes of another。 I can't wait to share, read, and discuss this with my library community。 My heart is glowing with excitement for the VOICE this book gives to children and families familiar with sensory learning differences!

Thanks to Netgalley and BQB Publishing for a free digital copy for my review。This book provides great perspective into the mind of someone who has different sensory needs。 I loved the explanations that are given in language kids can understand and the excellent illustration that is paired with the text。

Thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss+ for the e-ARC of this book。This book will be an important one in many school and home libraries。 It not only helps students identify some of these wiggly feelings, but helps adults understand that these aren't the behaviors of "difficult children", but of children who are struggling with something around them。 Thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss+ for the e-ARC of this book。This book will be an important one in many school and home libraries。 It not only helps students identify some of these wiggly feelings, but helps adults understand that these aren't the behaviors of "difficult children", but of children who are struggling with something around them。 。。。more
