This Beach Is Loud!

‘Dig dig… SPLISH SPLOOSH skraww!’ Samantha Cotterill bombards readers with sounds and sensations through a bright, skillful jumble of words and illustrations. A hugely enjoyable picture book for any child. Autism isn’t mentioned - but sensory overload and neurodiverse children are at its heart. A book that deftly sidesteps stereotypes and expectations of autistic characters - with wit, humour, and a chatty, exuberant child bang at the centre. Simple, but very powerful.
