内容简介

Andrew is a bright intuitive child who is loved by his mother, treasured by his grandfather, and is successful and happy in school. When his beloved grandfather becomes ill and Andrew's stable world starts slipping, he begins to soil at school and at home. Despite increasing anger and frustration from his mother and belittlement from his peers, Andrew is able to solve his soiling problems with the help of his doctor and his mother. Soiling or encopresis affects one or two of every hundred children. Its roots can be physical, emotional, or both and it can leave children and their families feeling embarrassed, frustrated, and isolated. Clouds and Clocks is the story of Andrew and the treatment he received from both a physician and a therapist. Not every child needs all the help that Andrew gets, but with this gentle story, every reader can discover that he or she is not alone and that there is plenty of help, regardless of the problem's underlying causes.
