This picture book aims to raise awareness of the impact that tics and Tourettes can have on an individual and their family in a child-friendly and supportive way. It is aimed at 4-11 year olds and has been inspired and informed by people with lived experiences of tics and Tourettes. Through rhyme and engaging illustrations this book hopes to start conversations about Tourettes, in order to help relieve anxieties that children might have about someone close to them who may be living with Tourettes. The MY HAS series of books aims to help children to understand a range of long-term health conditions whilst promoting an inclusive and diverse society.
Industry Reviews
"This charming book offers some really good advice as to how to talk about TS and best of all navigate a successful journey through work and relationships."- Suzanne Dobson - Chief Executive - Tourettes Action; "Every child wants to be accepted and understood, especially one with a condition that makes them stand out like Tourettes. This book successfully addresses this in a way that young children can understand."- Kim Mitchell - CEO - Tourettes-Syndrome Inclusion in the Community (T.I.C.); "This book is wonderful and will open up the conversation about Tourettes and fill a gap we find so often as to how to explain TS and tics to children who have them and also to others, especially in this age group." - Dr Seonaid Anderson - Reasearch Psychologist and Neurodiversity Consultant
