I Get It! I Get It! Is a beautifully-illustrated book about a boy who feels frustrated–and not smart. He is having difficulty at school and at home and begins to feel overwhelmed. The adults in his life think he is inattentive, and not trying hard enough. Children with Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) find the world a confusing and challenging place. Although they do not have a “hearing loss”, they often “mis-hear” and misinterpret directions they receive auditorily.
With the support of his family and his teacher, John learns how to effectively deal with the disorder, for success in school and at home. With modifications and help, John realizes he has a learning problem he can overcome.
Colorful, expressive illustrations follow John’s journey from confusion to triumph, good self-esteem, and “figuring it out.” At the end of the story, a Glossary of Terms, Ways You Can Help Your Child at Home and in School, and a Resources List are included.
