Repeat Pete is a pirate who is afflicted with sensory overload which results in a behaviour called stims. When Repeat Pete starts to stim all his fellow crew members taunt, tease and poke fun at him. This makes his already difficult experience even more unbearable. His anxiety levels escalate. One day in the middle of a stim, whilst being taunted, he decides that jumping overboard is better than staying on board his pirate ship. Repeat Pete swims to an island where he discovers a whole new world called acceptance. This bright and quirky story is vivified with vibrant illustrations inspired by the author's autistic son's drawing of a pirate at the age of 5. A great resource for schools, families and bringing about acceptance of "different" in our society.
