Description
A Story That Turns “I Don’t Want To” Into “I Can”
Puberty brings a wave of new routines — and for a lot of kids, the shower
and deodorant habit is the one that sparks the most daily battles. Not
because they don’t understand it, but because no one ever broke it down for
them, step by step, in a way that actually made sense.
Getting Ready is an illustrated Social Story that walks two
relatable characters, Maya and Jayden, through their own shower and deodorant
routines — using the same evidence-based Social Story method recommended by
autism researchers and clinicians: calm, factual description, validation of
how it might feel, and a clear “I can” step for every single stage.
What’s Inside
- ✅ A complete, illustrated 12-page story following two characters through
a real, four-step hygiene routine - ✅ Each page structured around the researched Social Story method:
situation, feeling, and a clear “I can” action - ✅ A printable checklist page designed to be stuck up in the bathroom as
an ongoing visual reminder - ✅ A dedicated Note for Parents & Carers explaining the research behind
starting this preparation early, before visible changes begin - ✅ Instant digital download — print at home or read together on any
device
Who This Is For
Parents and carers of a child, roughly ages 9-13, who is approaching or
already navigating the hygiene habits of early puberty — especially children
who respond well to clear, literal, visual explanations rather than a single
verbal conversation. Because the story follows both a boy and a girl
character, it works equally well regardless of your child’s gender.
What This Book Is Not
This is not a substitute for guidance from your child’s pediatrician,
therapist, or care team, and it does not cover puberty topics beyond hygiene
(that’s covered in a separate title in this series). It’s a focused,
reusable tool for one specific, high-friction routine — meant to be read
again and again, not just once.
