Patience, understanding, and a soothing exercise saves the beach day when excitement turns to sensory overload.

Going to the beach is exciting. But it can also be busy. And loud. Sand can feel hot or itchy or sticky...and it gets everywhere! In This Beach Is Loud!, a sensitive boy gets overwhelmed by all the sights, sounds, and sensations at the beach. Luckily, this kiddo's dad has a trick up his sleeve to help his son face these unexpected obstacles.

Combining accessible storytelling and playful design, This Beach Is Loud! gently offers practical advice for coping with new experiences to sensitive children on and off the autism spectrum.
★ "This charismatic and essential read-aloud will fill a hole that has been too long ignored in library and storytime collections." —School Library Journal, starred review

"Especially designed for kids with sensory-processing issues, the book has broad applicability beyond that audience . . . this book will reassure children that they can overcome their anxieties." —Kirkus Reviews
