Nathan begins to have sudden episodes of blinking, eye flutters, sniffing, and twitching. His parents and friends think he is doing this intentionally, but when his mother finally brings him to a specialist, they discover that Nathan has Tourette Syndrome. Nathan's mom helps him to discover ways to lessen his episodes, she speaks to his classmates about Tourette as well, so they can understand Nathan.
Nathan's mom becomes his advocate in this book. I admire how she spoke to his class about his diagnosis, and made him feel comfortable. When children did laugh at Nathan he was not bothered by it. ( )

This story would be great for an older audience like about ages 5 and up and it's about a kid that is diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome and has to adapt into the new changes in his life. ( )

This book is a very good informational book about Tourette's syndrome. I believe this would be good for ages 5-8 a little mature for preschool,
