Description

Shamlal the Camel struggles with everyday tasks, repeating her first word "NO!" frequently. Her parents seek help from a psychologist who explains that she has Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), a condition that affects her daily life. This illustrated storybook helps children with PDA understand their condition and develop tools to cope. A helpful introduction for parents and carers explains the challenges of living with PDA, including panic attacks and general anxiety. The book also provides useful strategies for managing PDA at home and at school, making it a valuable resource for those affected. For children with PDA and their families, this book offers a supportive and informative guide to understanding and managing the condition.
