This is one of my most recent illustrations. It is being used on the front cover of a new book and schooling program called 'What's the Buzz?'.What’s the Buzz? is a unique 16 lesson social skills enrichment programme designed to explicitly teach children how to think and relate to others. It is a lively role-play and play-based programme that targets everyday themes; how to greet, make and keep friends, fit in, read one’s own emotions, read the feelings of others, deal with competition and cope with worry, frustration and disappointment more constructively. It is for children who struggle to make friends, to fit in socially and to smoothly navigate their social and emotional world. What’s the Buzz? has proven particularly helpful for children identified with Asperger syndrome, ADHD, Specific Learning Difficulties, Language Disorder, Auditory Processing Disorder and anxiety difficulties.
What’s the Buzz? has been developed by Madhavi Nawana Parker and Mark Le Messurier and the book has recently been released internationally by the Routledge Taylor and Francis Group
(www.routledge.com), UK.
