My Cousin Has Tourettes Reviews

This charming book offers some really good advice as to how to talk about TS and best of all navigate a successful journey through work and relationships.- Suzanne Dobson - Chief Executive - Tourettes Action; Every child wants to be accepted and understood, especially one with a condition that makes them stand out like Tourettes. This book successfully addresses this in a way that young children can understand.- Kim Mitchell - CEO - Tourettes-Syndrome Inclusion in the Community (T.I.C.); This book is wonderful and will open up the conversation about Tourettes and fill a gap we find so often as to how to explain TS and tics to children who have them and also to others, especially in this age group. - Dr Seonaid Anderson - Reasearch Psychologist and Neurodiversity Consultant
