Unlocking the Mysteries of Sensory Dysfunction: A Resource for Anyone Who Works With, or Lives With, a Child with Sensory Issues

Autor Elizabeth Anderson, Pauline Emmons Thomas McKean
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 feb 2004
Parents are often the first to notice when a child is struggling with a sensory disorder. But even after knowing what the problem is, parents still need to know what to expect and, more importantly, what to do to help their child. This book is a parent-to-parent guide for raising a child with Sensory Integration Disorder. Using nonmedical language, the authors walk you through the challenges that children may face, such as being uncomfortable with hugs and kisses, experiencing a "fight or flight" sensation when brushing teeth or combing hair, etc. The two moms give tips and advice for school, home, and the future.

Recenzii

“Polly and Liz are the parents of two children with Sensory Integration Dysfunction, but their commitment, enthusiasm and devotion to helping others goes far beyond their own children and families. I found them inspirational in that they have decided their work and path in life is to make sure other parents and children don’t get as frustrated and scuttled in their search for help as they did before finding an intervention approach which recognized and successfully treated their children’s very special needs."

 

“This resource book is a must read for therapists, parents, and educators. As a therapist, instructor, and author in the field of Occupational Therapy and specializing in Sensory Integration Therapy, I found this book to be informative and insightful. It reflects warmth and a personal caring concern for all parents and their children with Sensory Integration Dysfunction. Liz and Polly are able to offer a clear and unique perspective. They combine the sometimes simple, but often complex realities of living with a child who has Sensory issues with practical suggestions."


“I wholeheartedly recommend this book and am extremely grateful to them for their gift to all of us."
Jeannetta Burpee, M.Ed., OTR/L, Certified - Sensory Integration, Therapist, Author and International Lecturer on SI and Developmental Disabilities
