Extrasensory Grace

This compilation of 12 articles focuses on children, teens, and adults with Sensory Processing Differences (SPD) whose unique sensitivities have made the world they inhabit a better place. From little Daniel with his musicality, to young adult Sadie with her empathy for animals, to wise David with his determination to make office buildings comfortable and safe, these individuals prove that neurodiversity benefits us all.Extrasensory Grace, part of the Out-of-Sync Series, aims to inspire parents, teachers, relatives, and professionals who support kids who have sensory processing differences with real life success stories.

As a music and movement teacher for 25 years, Carol observed many out-of-sync preschoolers. To help them become more competent at work and play, she studied sensory processing and sensory integration ("SI") theory. She learned to identify her students' needs and steer them into early intervention. These stories recount her successes.
