 Rating:  - GREAT REFERENCE FOR OT's IN PEDIATRIC PRACTICE It's a very useful book for OT's practicing in the Pediatric area... As an OT student who wants to work in this particular area, it is a very good resource ... It talks about evaluations, interventions, teamwork, child development, health conditions and diagnostics and it's impact in children, legislations, etc. All from the Occupational Therapy way. Rating: - Comprehensive Resource for Peds OTWhile I agree with the previous reviewer that the book is slow reading, I have many positive things to say about it as well. The book has a plethora of resources for students and practitioners alike, including readings, websites, etc. to augment eval/tx or to further explore a topic.

It is not, however, a very easily read textbook. Some areas are repetative and make for very slow reading. Many times the author backs up her explanations citing studies. This is excellent in a reference book, however, as an introduction to an area of OT, it makes learning the subject matter laborious. Rating: - The book title says it all: "OT for Children"This resource provides an overview of many conditions found in pediatric treatment. The reviews of developmental progressions of all ADLs, pre-writing, fine motor, gross motor, cognitive, and other skills are presented both in concise, outline form and in paragraph form for more details. All chapters are well-organized, and focused on OT practice, while the section by Exner on the Development of Hand Skills is exceptional. This is a MUST HAVE resource for OT working in pediatrics. Rating: - essential readingAs a Paediatric Occupational Therapist I find this book a valuable resource in my department.
