About this title: This is an exploration of Sensory Integration Dysfunction, "the inability to process information received through the senses." The possible symptoms are bewilderingly broad. A child can be rambunctious, withdrawn, clumsy, fearful, hostile, ultra-sensitive, or lacking much apparent sensitivity, among many other unwanted traits. The three broad types are tactile (the sense of touch), vestibular (involving balance and gravity), and propriaceptive (dealing with ligaments, joints, and muscles).

"Don't get me wrong--this is probably still the best book out there for sensory-disorder, but MAN!
Someday, a loving and merciful person will get out there and write "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Sensory Processing Disorder; The Practical Version," and when they do, I'll be the first customer.
This book was dense, and difficult. If all you're looking for is straightforward practical advise on how to help your child, skip to the back, get a pencil and paper, and extract it from the final chapters.
Yes, this book is important. Yes, this book is valuable. But . . . oh."
"This is an amazing, ground-breaking look into Sensory Integration Dysfunction. Kranowitz does an excellent job of explaining what SID is, how to identify it, and what steps to take."
"Everyone has some piece of a sensory issue (tags on clothing, not wanting to get dirty, etc.). Good angle on a "sensory diet" and how to find a balance."
"This book helped me understand what the sensory overload my son was experiencing and how to help him deal with it. i don't think I would have survived if a wonderful therapist hadn't recommended it. The author has great suggestions for activities that helped so much when my son was overloaded and upset."
