Overview

Stop the Wiggle, Ditch the Itch, and Save the Morning Routine! Does your child twist, turn, and tear off their clothes because they feel ""too bumpy,"" ""too tight,"" or ""too scratchy""? You are not alone. For children with tactile sensitivity or sensory processing differences, a simple clothing tag can feel like a cactus needle. Meet Derry Dog. Derry is a happy pup who loves to run and play. But today, he has a big problem. His brand-new shirt has a sneaky, prickly secret that is ruining his fun. It tickles his fur, prickles his skin, and makes him do a silly wiggle dance that he just can't stop. Through a fun, rhyming adventure, Derry learns to become a sensory detective. Instead of melting down, he discovers how to tell his parents exactly what hurts-whether it's a sharp tag or a lumpy seam-and finds a solution that makes him feel safe and soft again. Why Parents and Therapists Love Derry Dog and the Itchy Shirt: Validates the Sensory Experience: Helps children understand that their physical discomfort is real and that it is okay to ask for help. Encourages Self-Advocacy: Gives kids the language to say, ""This hurts my skin,"" instead of acting out in frustration. Reduces Morning Meltdowns: Turns the stress of getting dressed into a relatable, funny story that normalizes sensory needs. Includes a Guide for Caregivers: Features a special ""Note for Parents"" with tips on navigating tactile defensiveness and choosing ""safe"" clothing. Perfect for families navigating Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), Autism (ASD), or the Highly Sensitive Child. This book transforms the clothing battle into a moment of understanding and comfort. Help your child feel comfortable in their own skin (and shirt!). Scroll up and grab your copy today.
