My Quiet Place

For anyone who struggles with sensory overload, this soothing audiobook offers a touchstone of understanding and encouraging guidance for finding your own quiet place—whenever and wherever it’s needed.

In our loud and busy world, finding a moment or place to think, dream, or rest quietly can be challenging. My Quiet Place highlights one child’s difficulty in dealing with the volume and action that swirl around her as she moves from the serenity of dawn to the bustle of breakfast, the cacophony of street sounds, the jostling of playground fun, and the everythingness of people’s lives packed together in a crowded bus or market. With focus and determination, she identifies all the ways she can find quiet when she needs it and even share it when someone else needs a bit, too.

Highlighting a common symptom of anxiety, depression, and ADHD, this compassionate and empowering book serves as a much-needed resource for children, families, and teachers. Light-hearted and relatable, it will make neurodiverse kids feel heard and understood and let kids who don’t experience this phenomenon hear and understand them.

Perfect for parents, grandparents, educators, and neurodivergent thinkers. It is a reassuring read for kids with varying levels of social anxiety and anyone feeling a bit overwhelmed. Readers who enjoy the award-winning A Friend For Henry series, Too Much!: An Overwhelming Day, and My Brain Is a Race Car will also love My Quiet Place.
