This bibliography is for The Out-of-Sync Child: Recognizing and Coping with Sensory Processing Differences, 3rd edition and for other books in the "Sync" Series

Good to Know:

The bibliography below includes books that Carol Kranowitz used while researching, writing, and revising The Out-of-Sync Child: Recognizing and Coping with Sensory Processing Differences, 3rd ed. (Tarcher/Perigee, April 2022).

Also listed are other titles that will provide helpful information for interested parents, teachers, and professionals.

Some books could logically be listed under more than one heading. Thus, please glance at all categories to find titles that may interest you.

Some seminal books, written decades ago, are still informative, such as Doris Rapp's Is This Your Child? and Paul MacLean's A Triune Concept of the Brain and Behaviour.

Links usually will take you to smile.amazon.com because a small percentage of sales goes to the STAR Institute for Sensory Processing to support research and treatment for children and adults. Go to the link to learn more about the book, and then purchase the book from your favorite bookstore.

The Dewey Decimal System number is included for most books to help you find them at the public library.

New titles will be added to this bibliography from time to time.
