Avril Webster’s 9 year old son Stephen has a moderate to severe intellectual disability with significant sensory integration issues. While Avril is passionate about supporting Stephen to take part in family activities, everyday experiences have been a real struggle. With their shared love of books, Avril decided to create a series that would help prepare Stephen for overwhelming situations – going to the hairdresser, a restaurant, the supermarket, the doctor, the dentist and the swimming – and the books have now been published. Support was provided by speech and language therapist Jeanne Dippenaar.
