I haven't read this yet. Just ordered it (available on amazon) .It looks

like it'd be of interest to " us " . There's no way I'll finish by the March 15

deadline...

There are two great kids books that I would recommend. " The Legend of the

Indian Paintbrush " by Tomie dePaola and " Teeny Tiny Ernest " by T.

. Do you just need the names or do you need us to get the books?

I also wanted to mention quickly a few snack that I think are good since you

asked in an earlier e-mail. If your kids like peanut crackers there are

great organic ones had Whole Foods; the name is Late July and they are

Classic Rich Sandwich Crackers. Also, any of the cheese crackers in the

shape of fish or rabbits seem to taste pretty good. ( I can't eat the ones

with cheese). It is a little different for a 3 year old since Jonah likes

all Sesame Street items, but Earth's Best makes them now. I know Lindsey

and are older. I know pretzels are not that fattening, but the

Newman ones are really good (not the real spicy ones or the salt free ones).

Well, hope this helps a little.

Since so many of our kids have had to deal with some type of sensory

issues, I think a great book would be " The Out of Sync Child " by

Carol Stock Kranowitz (the revised edition is supposed to be

available in early August). I just looked it up on Amazon.com again,

and the author has several other books dealing with the issue that I

didn't know were available - including one for kids (reading level 9 -

12) and books of activites for kids with SID.
