Sleep and Your Special Needs Child by Antonia Chitty
Research shows that children with additional needs are more likely to have sleep disorders than typically developing children. This book addresses sleep problems with a behavioural and cognitive approach to sleep management. The advice contained is invaluable for parents who want to tackle sleep issues in a way that is appropriate for their child.

It is the first book to explain these approaches in detail.' Nursery World 'Parents with a special-needs child will appreciate this discovery. Included are many narratives that add to both understanding the topic and giving much-needed support. Recommended.' Library Journal 'The joy of the books are that they are useful for special needs and also non special needs children. By talking through various developmental stages and also where those stages get "stuck", there is plenty to learn for all parents...a great, practical read for all families.'
