Can I tell you about Auditory Processing Disorder?

A Guide for Friends, Family and Professionals by Alyson Mountjoy, illustrated by Kelly Davies.

Part of the Can I tell you about...? series.

In this friendly guide, a girl called Amy tells all about her Auditory Processing Disorder (APD). Together with her friend Tom and sister Lucy, Amy explains how every child with APD is effected in unique ways, and how to get help if you have APD.

This illustrated guide is ideal for helping children aged 7+ with APD to understand the condition, while increasing their self-esteem and confidence. Explaining about causes, symptoms, diagnosis and comorbidity in child-friendly terms, it dispels myths and encourages children to self-advocate and seek help at home and at school. It is also an excellent starting point for parents, teachers and other professionals wishing to tailor support to the type and severity of a child's APD, and includes a helpful list of recommended sources for additional support.

Market: Children aged 7+; their friends and family; audiologists, occupational therapists, SENCOs, teachers, learning support assistants, speech and language therapists and other professionals working with children with auditory processing difficulties
