A Windy Day with Annie Michelle Fattig 1. izdevums

A Windy Day with Annie is an early reader. A Windy Day is fun to read, and helps promote understanding for children with Attention Deficits and Asperger's. As a counseling tool, A Windy Day provides the opportunity to discuss a child's feelings about Annie and her daydreaming. Frequently, a young reader will indicate that Annie is "bad" because she doesn't pay attention. Discussing Annie's daydreaming and inattentiveness as a "difference in her brain," instead of being "bad," can help facilitate awareness and empathy in others and self-acceptance in those of us with ADD and AS.
