I am an pediatric occupational therpist, found this book when a neurologist recommended it to a parent of one of my patient. It full of all kind of activities broken down into categories it's a great resource.

I am a COTA (Occupational Therapy) working in a local school district with mostly k-2nd grade. There is a wealth of information and activities to develop visual motor and ocular motor skills. The descriptions of the different areas are fairly easy to understand although someone without an education in this area may find some of it a bit difficult. Even so, the activities are easy to understand and follow. I highly recommend this book to anyone working in occupational therapy.

Any professional working with reading difficulties will quickly note the difference in a child's reading skills when ocular motor training is needed to help the eyes work together smoothly. Tracking and other eye functions can create headaches and reading phobias in young readers. This book is tremendously helpful for those are interested in providing targeted groups and individual remediation activities.

Daughter is an occupational therapist, and had requested this workbook. She loves it, and has shared it with other teachers at her schools.

very specific, content useful for those trying to understand what exercises occupational therapist is specifically doing, to what effect, and to perhaps emulate them.

This has a great variety of visual exercises - My students don't need most of them, but will really benefit from a select few - Nice compilation!

Very helpful to parents and professionals of children with reading difficulty and visual motor impairments.

This book gave a good overview of the ocular systems, but the activity workbook sections, which I primarily wanted the book for, was complicated.
