Unlocking the Mysteries of Sensory Dysfunction1996 Trade paperback"Because they understand their child usualIy better than anyone else, parents are often the first to sense when their child is struggling or suffering..." (opening sentence) "Polly and Liz are the parents of two children with Sensory Integration Dysfunction, but their commitment, enthusiasm and devotion to helping others goes far beyond their own children and families. I found them inspirational in that they have decided their work and path in life is to make sure other parents and children don't get as frustrated and scuttled in their search for help as they did before finding any intervention approach which recognized and sucessfully treated their children's very special needs."

As a therapist, instructor, and author in the field of Occupational Therapy and specialzing in Sensory Integration Therapy, I found this book to be informative and insightful."
