Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: Ok book This book is full of questions and answers. Some answers are very well written and give very good information. Others I thought were a bit one sided. I would recommend this book to parents but only as a quick answer book. I would not recommend this to therapists or teachers. Fabulous Resource! I have been teaching almost 12 years and I WISH I had read this book when I was student teaching. What a FANTASTIC resource! Having read this book explains so, so very much. I found it particularly helpful in allowing me to see how some children w/ ADHD may be misdiagnosed when in fact they have SPD. In general, I found it so very easy to read b/c of it's Question and Answer format and the simple layout of the book makes it easy to use as a desk-reference. The author's way of presenting the information is in understandable terms, not medical or psycho-babble! I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who works with children and especially to parents who seek to better understand the SPD world their children live in daily. Very informative, very important and a book I WILL NOT put up on a shelf and periodically dust off. This is one to dog ear, pass on and wear out! BEST KEPT SECRET! I'm an occupational therapist who works in a clinic and school setting.I just finished reading SPD answer book and it provided the specific information I've been looking for! It's a perfect resource for parents and for adults living with SPD. The book's written in a question answer format, so you can easily get your questions answered immediately. The author does an amazing job of breaking down the science of this disorder while explaining it in practical terms. It's like a mini encyclopedia on SPD, describing the physiology, everyday functional strategies to handle sensory overloading situations, therapeutic activities, and a list of concise resources in the back. I bought this to help my son, but it helps me, too! I have always lived with hydrocephalus and have grown up with SPD. Age has helped tremendously, but there are still some sensory "quirks" I have to deal with. They are nothing like those my son, who is autistic, has to deal with, but they're there. This book makes perfect sense of them! It gives a good lay-friendly explanation but also includes the technical terms that help me understand my own issues (and explain them to others) as well as my son's, and it gives some great ideas on how to deal with them. | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
