'No I Won't!'

Mary Mountstephen & Ngo Chew Yeh

Illustrated by Gwendolyn Wong

Amira can't cope with the simple requests that we make every day as her anxiety levels are constantly so high that she cannot ( not ‘will not’ ) be able to do something as simple as put on her school shoes. Getting ready for school is a nightmare'’ (Amira's mother).

This story follows Amira through her day and explains, in simple terms, what it is like for her and for those around her.

Amira may or may not have a formal diagnosis of PDA, but here we’ll help you to learn how to manage her so that effective learning can take place.



‘Amira is a changed child! This book has helped us all make great progress, and we are grateful for the strategies we are now using on a daily basis’. (Amira’s school).
