Full Description
What does it mean when a child is having difficulty with developmental milestones like walking, talking, and learning to read and write? What are the signs that a disability might be present, and what next steps can parents take to help their child?
Paediatrician Louis Pellegrino gives you clear and down-to-earth answers in this new version of the trusted best seller When Your Child Has a Disability. Now streamlined and reorganised by key developmental milestones rather than by disability, this book responds perfectly to the needs of parents who don't have a diagnosis yet or want to explore challenges common across disabilities. With reassuring warmth, good humour, and candour, Dr. Pellegrino offers practical guidance on what it means and what to do next when a child struggles with
speech and language development
motor skills development
daily living skills
social skills
behavioural control and attention
learning and cognitive development
vision, hearing, and sensory processing
special medical issues
Throughout the book, Dr. Pellegrino combines research-based information and guidance with vivid metaphors, jargon-busting explanations of key terms, fascinating ""pearls of wisdom,"" and engaging anecdotes from his personal and professional experience.
A go-to guide for families, a highly accessible resource for professionals, and an ideal supplemental text for tomorrow's practitioners, this book will be a mainstay reference for everyone who picks it up. Keep it at your fingertips for a great developmental primer and the guidance you need to take first steps toward resolving a child's challenges.
