The book collects 40 short social stories written with the symbols of Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC) which clearly and simply describe situations, routines, behaviours, skills and emotions identified as among the most frequent in children aged 3- 4 years and up (the age at which you begin to develop autonomy and the ability to choose and manage emotions).

The stories briefly explain what is happening, why it happens and what attitudes to adopt in that specific situation.

The stories are divided into 3 main areas:

  1. Personal care and hygiene (I brush my teeth, take a shower, learn to get dressed, etc.)
  2. Behavior (at the table, in line, apologizing, etc.)
  3. Emotions (crying, anger, frustration, etc.)
