The Out-Of-Sync Child: Recognizing and Coping with Sensory Processing Disorder

We knew something was different about our son but didn't know what. After showing a video of him to someone in the medical field they recommended this book to us. It felt like I was reading something written about him. I felt more confident that I spoke to my doctor and he's now getting therapy to help develop life skills. Easy to understand, great examples.

a good read for every teacher....

I was advised to purchase this by a doctor whilst my son was undergoing various assessments for behaviour that was at the time very bizarre and unexplainable. He has since been diagnosed with Autism and SPD. I can only say that its almost like this book was wrote about my 9 year old son. What previously caused stress and arguments due to his bizarre mannerisms and seeming in ability to sit still etc. is now accepted and channelled and to a certain extent controlled through certain strategies. Indeed, since reading the book I can relate to him and now understand why he does certain things, making for a much calmer household and more importantly a much happier and settled 9 year old. If your child is suspected of suffering from sensory processing disorder (SPD) then in my opinion this book is essential reading.

Excelente libro, explican muy bien los desórdenes sensoriales. Dan ejemplos prácticos que se pueden presentar en los niños en su vida diaria. Lo recomiendo.

Vivement que les professionnels de l'éducation s'intéressent à ce trouble. Encore une fois, la France a beaucoup de retard à rattraper...
