The Sensory-Sensitive Child: Practical Solutions for Out-of-Bounds .

The Sensory-Sensitive Child: Practical Solutions for Out-of-Bounds Behavior. In a book likely to transform how parents manage many of their child's daily struggles, Drs. Smith and Gouze explain the central and frequently unrecognized role that sensory processing problems play in a child's emotional and behavioral difficulties. Practicing child psychologists, and themselves parents of children with sensory integration problems, their message is innovative, practical, and, above all, full of hope.

Parts of this book were overwhelming in their descriptions - I could have sworn it was written about my children. This book is really helping me to understand the sensory needs of my child and how it relates to his behavior. A friend told me she felt the same about other examples and her own children. This book taught me more about their behaviours and the reasons behind them than any other book I've read on the subject. Can't recommend this book enough. Recommend for all parents, but especially those with special needs.

If you are a parent, grandparent, Aunt, Uncle, sister, brother, cousin, or friend of a person with Sensory Processing disorder or Autism, you NEED to read this book. I gives an amazing, in depth look into the life of a person with the disorder, plus it will give you REAL WORLD solutions on how to deal with the ups and downs that come with it. My son has SPD, ASD and ADHD and even though I thought I had it all figured out, this book proved my wrong. It has become a valuable resource of information for me and has given me so much more understanding of what my son feels and goes through, plus ideas that will help both him and me navagate through the rest of our life. I cant stress how amazing this book is.

I read this half-way through - stopped - went back to the beginning and read it again. It is so very helpful for kids with sensory processing disorders, adhd, autism, etc. I’ve copied a section of it that explains how my son experiences the world. It’ll be included in his IEP so that his teachers will be required to educate themselves on his situation.

This book is amazing.
What I LOVED was the parts that depicted a typical day through the eyes of the parents of an SPD child, then flipped to the same day through the eyes of that child. What an eye-opener! So many 'Aha!' moments.
Parts of this book were overwhelming in their descriptions - I could have sworn it was written about my children. A friend told me she felt the same about other examples and her own children.
This book taught me more about their behaviours and the reasons behind them than any other book I've read on the subject. Can't recommend this book enough.

A very comprehensive overview, and very much appreciated because it also helps give me the language to communicate this often perplexing disorder to others who need to understand my child. This was written by not one, but two, psychology PH. Ds. which is an additional plus because I know they can make the distinction between between psychological factors and sensory ones, so not only has it helped my understanding, but I know that what I relate to others about my child is accurate. Truly it has been a Godsend. Furthermore, it goes over the SEVEN senses involved which is an important distinction when it comes to understanding Sensory Processing Disorder, or "SPD".

As a clinical psychologist, there are precious few sources that I recommend to my patients about sensory functioning in children and this is one of them. It is comprehensive, informative, and leads directly to interventions that are helpful and compassionate.

This book was recommended to me and it is a very good book. I just found it harder to read and relate to than the second book I read on this topic. Still, given that the read is super informative and would be really more interesting I think to someone dealing with a more extreme case of SPD, I would absolutely recommend it.

This book is really helping me to understand the sensory needs of my child and how it relates to his behavior. Recommend for all parents, but especially those with special needs.

Valuable insight into the struggles of the sensory-sensitive child. This also helps parents and teachers understand the long-forgotten struggle to maintain the mental and physical balance needed to grow and to learn.
