Sensory Integration Issues

My 5 year old nephew is having a very tough time in kindergarten and was recently diagnosed as having sensory integration issues.

I dont really know anything about this, and I'd like to learn more in order to help him out. Does anyone know any good books or websites I can look at?

There are lots of books out there but it depends what his issues are. My son is super sensitive to touch & smell so we do special massages for touch and it has helped. If you google it you should find tons of info-HTH

Thanks so much, the websites are great. His parents are still in the early stages of evaluation and diagnosis.
