They present a host of challenges that standard parenting books fail to address. Now, in <i>Quirky Kids</i>, seasoned pediatricians Perri Klass and Eileen Costello provide the expert guidance that families with quirky children so desperately need.<br><br>Klass and Costello illuminate the confusing list of terms often applied to quirky children–from Asperger’s syndrome and nonverbal learning disability to obsessive-compulsive behavior and sensory integration dysfunction. The authors also discuss various therapy options, coping strategies, and available medications. Most of all, they will help quirky kids lead rich, fulfilling lives at home, at school, even on the playground. 892653 2003 Quirky Kids: Understanding and Helping Your Child Who Doesn't Fit In- When to Worry and When Not to Worry total:42|5:12|4:24|3:6|2:0|1:0| 42 174 65 13 4 1 false false Mon May 19 10:35:43 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 08 19:17:38 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Fri Feb 13 17:54:31 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 13 17:58:25 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Fri Jun 19 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 20 14:51:28 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 20 14:52:30 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Oct 28 17:14:56 -0700 2007 Fri Apr 04 17:29:57 -0700 2008
