Social stories for kids

Ready Story makes them for neurodivergent children, with your child's name and look on every page. Pick a situation below to see what the book covers, read three real pages, and start your own.

Dentist
From the waiting room to the big chair and the sticker at the end.
Doctor visit
Measuring, listening to the heart and looking in ears, all in order.
Haircut
The cape, the buzzing clippers and a break when it is too much.
Airplane
Packing, security, takeoff and landing, one calm step at a time.
New school
Backpack, goodbye, lunch, recess and a quiet place when it is loud.
Getting a shot
The wipe, the quick pinch, the bandage and a hug.

Loud songs, popping balloons, games and cake, with a quiet spot ready.

A growing tummy, a crying baby and special time just for you.
