There are not many pictures but the book is a great read. There are good explanations and treatments in the book.

Overall the book provides good information for individuals interested in pediatric therapy, but is not as comprehensive as I would have liked. It briefly discusses the developmental stages in a chart, but is not extremely detailed. The book provides great information with case studies, but it limited to 7 disorders.

Super fast delivery! I am a happy customer! Thanks!
