For Deepak, Paul OT/ Hospital Abudhabi July 20, 2011:
The best resources I know for working with children who have Cerebral Palsy are: Handling The Young Cerebral Palsied Child at Home, by Nancie Finnie (UK) and another good book is By Sophie Levitt - Treatment of Cerebral Palsy and Motor Delay: 5th (fifth) Edition. Both are available through www.amazon.com. I hope you find these helpful. I have worked with handicapped children for 40 years and these are two of my favorite books.
