Reviews

'This is the first book to be written for parents, and those who counsel them, about children who have co-ordination disorders which can affect their social, perceptual and motor skills, attention control and self-confidence. It has practical case and picture illustrations with varied descriptions of this recently recognised developmental disorder, which is unrelated to high intelligence, and which can be undiagnosed because it may be so minimal. Useful advice is given about helping children and young adults at various stages, and addresses of treatment, teaching and support organisations are provided.' -Counselling 'Clear and positive answers to the questions asked by parents and teachers about behaviour, causes and assessment associated with dyspraxia. It also discusses the range of possible therapeutic interventions.' -ASCS for information
