Professional Review:
For children with sensory integration issues-those who have difficulty processing everyday sensations and exhibit unusual behaviors such as avoiding or seeking out touch, movement, sounds, and sights-this groundbreaking book is an invaluable resource. Long thought to affect only autistic children, or mistaken for ADHD, SI dysfunction is finally being recognized as a separate condition. Coauthored by a pediatric occupational therapist and a parent of a child with SI dysfunction, Raising a Sensory Smart Child is as warm and accessible as it is authoritative and detailed and is an indispensable guide for parents, therapists, and teachers who will turn to it again and again.

User Reviews:
 Rating 5   Written on March 28, 2007
   Summary: A Parent Must Have
If your child has been diagnosed with SID or you are a teacher this book is a must have. It is well written and easy to read for parents and professionals. It gives excellent recommendations for a disorder that is very broad. As a former special education teacher I wish I would have read this information while I was still in the classroom. It is absolutely invaluable both in and out of the classroom!

 Rating 5   Written on January 14, 2007
   Summary: What a great resource!
This book has a TON of information about Sensory Integration Dysfunction. There are tons of fun activities that are very easy to do and are fun for kids of all ages and abilities. There is also an excellent guide in the back of the book which gives websites for additional information and sensory equipment.

 Rating 5   Written on November 22, 2006
   Summary: A New Toolbox
This book is packed with useful, applicable tips for helping a child with DSI or Sensory Processing issues cope with the world around them. Even the most knowledgable parent or professional can benefit from the wealth of suggestions and techniques to help a child adapt with an uncomfortable world.

   Summary: Great lesson
I thought this was a great book. It was well organized, detailed and very informative. I would highly recommend it for anyone who would like to better understand sensory issues.

 Rating 5   Written on October 15, 2006
   Summary: Psychologist highly recommends
I highly recommend this comprehensive and detailed guide to helping children with sensory issues. With authorship shared by an occupational therapist and the mother of son with sensory issues, it is chock full of helpful insights and tips from both a therapeutic and a parental perspective.

This book goes into more detail than most, is very up to date, and includes numerous resources for appropriate toys, products, and additional websites.

This is a very useful book for parents of any child who has been formally diagnosed with sensory issues or sensory integration disorder, but also for those parents who simply notice that their children are sometimes overwhelmed by their internal states or environmental stimuli.

Chapters include descriptions of the seven senses, how to tune in to your child, working with occupational therapists, handling developmental delays, improving speech, picky eating, learning and getting organized, nutrition, sleep, stress, discipline, tantrums and more!

There are also great sections on advocating for your child at school and helping your teenager with sensory issues.
