Author:	Elizabeth Anderson & Pauline Emmons
ISBN:	1-885477-25-2
Colour:	Green
Summary:	A resource for anyone who works with, or lives with, a child with sensory issues
Evaluations:	(1) Liked, helpful, informative, easy to read and would recommend it. (2) This book usefully combines insights into the emotional ups and downs experienced by parents (I particularly liked the sections on 'denial' (p26) and 'family' (p55)) with a number of practical suggestions, e.g., the importance of keeping a diary/notebook (p29-30). However, the layout, unusually large format and sometimes rather random organisation of material is off putting. This is a shame as the book does contain much that is helpful if you persist with it.
