A comprehensive guide to the varied sleep disorders that affect children from infancy to adolescence, many of which are commonly misdiagnosed, offering new wisdom to parents about how to ease their child's troubles.

Sleep disorders in children are on the rise. Experts have pronounced sleeplessness a "hidden health crisis" for young people, with 10 percent of children presenting with diagnosable sleep disorders--but well over half are misdiagnosed. Every year, tens of thousands of children are treated for diseases such as diabetes, learning disorders, or chronic pain, when the real root cause of their ailment may actually be a sleep disorder for which they're not being treated.

In this groundbreaking guide, neurologist and sleep expert Dr. Chris Winter identifies the signs and symptoms of the most common sleep disorders affecting children today, and he empowers parents and caregivers to understand the steps necessary to address and treat their children's sleep problems. From common issues such as too much screen time and night terrors, to narcolepsy, sleep apnea, and more, The Rested Child leaves no stone unturned. This book pulls back the curtain on the relationship between poor sleep quality and pediatric epidemics related to psychiatric health, rising obesity, ADD/ADHD, pain disorders, and other undiagnosed disorders of sleepiness and fatigue.

Finally parents have a resource to help them uncover the root of their children's problems, and, more important, to provide the answers on how to help.

Even though my kids do not have a sleeping problem I was drawn to listen to this book. I learned so many great insights that I have tucked away for future conversations!! And learned some helpful information about myself as well! Written for regular people, like me, and includes the right amount of jokes to keep you smiling while you learn!

So many benefits to sleep!

The book was incredibly informative and helpful as I work with kids and have two of my own.

This book was recommended by a colleague who learned of it at a conference when she heard the author speak. I dealt with many behaviors within our elementary school, so she thought I would gain insight by reading the book. Not only did I change the lighting in my special education classroom, but I have also come to realize that little things that we have laughed off(snoring that sounds like a grizzly bear chewing on a tin can) within our family actually have negative consequences if left untreated. I am now in the process of getting my own children to the doctor to improve their quality of life.

Wow! Very informative and engaging to hear.

The Narrator was the author of the book. You could feel the passion of his words. This book has so much info packed in an informative way filled with facts, patient interactions and small jokes here and there. It was an interesting AND informative way to learn about sleep in your child. Iv already recommended it multiple times!

This book did not disappoint!
