Sunnyvale, CA

Hi! Can anyone please recommend a book similar to Clementine for my son? His SLP suggested Clementine but she thought it would be a good idea if the protagonist is a boy, either elementary school or middle school age. He is almost finished with Bat And The End Of Everything. Thanks in advance.

Columbia, KY

He also drinks PediaSure. His iron levels are good and he is healthy no problem with weight loss, sleep well and is active. I'm currently on a waiting list to get a diagnosis. He is fearful of anything coming near his mouth he doesn't put toys in his mouth, but he also doesn't allow us to brush his teeth… read more
