Independently Published Los amigos... ¿qué son?: Friends Are...? (Spanish) (Autism Is...? Books (Spanish) #5) (Spanish)
En este libro para niños autistas, Logan tiene problemas para compartir y se burla de un amigo. Su abuela le enseña a ser un buen amigo con algunas reglas de amistad fantásticas. Los niños no autistas generalmente aprenden habilidades sociales de manera natural y espontánea, observando y mezándose con todos los que los rodean, pero los niños con autismo pueden necesitar aprender estas habilidades de una manera más tangible, a través de historias sociales, juegos de rol y otros medios. Por supuesto, este libro no es de ninguna manera un manual completo sobre cómo los niños en el espectro autista pueden nutrir amistades, pero el autor espera que las diferentes "reglas de amistad" en Friends Are...? pueden ser un trampolín para la conversación, como lo fueron para ella y su nieto. Hay una lista de palabras y una lista de reglas de amistad fantástica en la parte posterior del libro para ayudar a enseñar a los niños en el espectro autista algunas de las habilidades sociales importantes necesarias para desarrollar buenas amistades.

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform The Sensory Processing Anthology: A Comprehensive Guide for Parents and Caregivers of Sensational Kids
Sensory processing disorder (SPD) has been likened to a "neurological traffic jam," and occurs when sensory information is not received or transmitted appropriately within the brain enabling a child to organize, assimilate and make sense of the world. This disorder leads to a spectrum of social, emotional, and behavioral problems that can be expressed in a variety of ways. The Sensory Processing Anthology brings much-needed support to adults, children and families dealing with this disorder. This unique book provides in-depth descriptions of the SPD types with accompanying strategies to help the sensory child succeed in their everyday tasks. The first book of its kind to provide hundreds of strategies for dealing with a sensory child's behavior, it also illuminates the "whys" behind the befuddling behavior. SPD is presented in a holistic manner with dysfunction described not by each individual sense, but by each type of disorder. Written by a parent of sensory children with contributions and technical oversight by occupational therapists, developmental optometrists, audiologists, and mental health professionals, this book is an invaluable resource for providing the calm, loving, and empathic environment needed to help a sensory child develop, learn and succeed.

Ballantine Books The Lcp Solution: The Remarkable Nutritional Treatment for Adhd, Dyslexia, and Dyspraxia
This important new book documents a major breakthrough in the treatment of the three most widespread learning disabilities--ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia ("clumsy child syndrome"). Although these conditions have reached epidemic proportions, treatment has been limited to ineffective behavioral therapies or the controversial prescription drug Ritalin. Now Dr. B. Jacqueline Stordy, a leading researcher in the field, reveals a stunning new treatment based on a simple nutritional supplement: LCP (long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids). The LCP Solution is the first book to describe this new natural treatment and to explain how children (and adults) can incorporate it into their daily lives. As a member of a family with a long history of dyslexia, Dr. Stordy discovered in a pioneering experiment that dyslexic and dyspraxic children who began taking a dietary supplement consisting of LCP experienced dramatic transformations in the quality of their lives. At the same time, parallel studies conducted at Purdue University came up with similar results with children who had ADHD. The effect of this dietary supplement was nothing short of revolutionary: after only a few weeks, dyslexic and ADHD children became calmer, more focused, easier to teach, while dyspraxics improved significantly in dexterity and balance, showing markedly less anxiety.

Maria Rickert Hong Almost Autism: Recovering Children from Sensory Processing Disorder: A Reference for Parents and Practitioners
Maria Rickert Hong, CHHC, AADP has recovered her two sons from Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), what she calls "almost autism". One of the problems with SPD is that it's not an official diagnosis. As a parent or practitioner, you're left on your own to get help for a child whose issues you can't quite put your finger on. This child doesn't have autism, but they almost have autism, and they fall through the cracks. Knowing the confusion and lack of information that parents and practitioners have about the disorder, she sets out a clear roadmap in this book for recovering a child from increased sensory sensitivities. In this book you will learn, in layman's terms: -What the common symptoms of SPD are. -What causes SPD: toxicity, gut dysbiosis, immune dysregulation, nutritional deficiencies, adrenal imbalances, thyroid imbalances, inflammation and other factors. -How these factors cause neurodevelopmental damage, which may initially show up as retained primitive reflexes. -What an MTHFR mutation is and how it affects an SPD child. -What are the roles of genetics and epigenetics. -What mitochondrial dysfunction is and what to do about it. -How to recover a child, step by step, from SPD. -How to get a child to sleep better. -How to choose and cook foods that will lower stress. -How to lower inflammation, a key component of sensory dysfunction.

Amacom The ADD/ADHD Drug Free: Natural Alternatives and Practical Exercises to Help Your Child Focus
A practical, invaluable guide that gives frustrated parents a long-awaited natural alternative. Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD) are among the most misunderstood problems facing young children today. Drugs like Ritalin and Cylert are traditionally prescribed to treat these disorders, but their use is controversial.

Sometimes they don't work at all, and they can come with disturbing side effects such as weight loss, insomnia, and may even slow growth in younger children. ADD/ADHD Drug Free is the first book to feature enjoyable, practical activities for children that will: help them cope with their disorder by strengthening brain functioning, show parents, teachers, and counselors how they can improve learning and behavior effectively and without medication, and provide healthy, effective, and safe alternatives to using drugs on children. Timely and thoroughly researched, ADD/ADHD Drug Free will help thousands of children become more focused and more successful in school and in life, without jeopardizing their health.

He had become 'the Alphabet Kid'. His family never gave up on him, however Drawing lessons from Sam's transformational journey from difficult child to budding entrepreneur, My Child's Different offers encouragement to parents who may be concerned about what the future might hold, and demonstrates how with the right support and positive parenting skills their children can grow up to surprise and delight them.
