With this guiding principle, she provides strategies that will be helpful for teachers, parents and others who wish to provide support to people with dyslexia and other learning disabilities... Knowing what to look for and what to avoid with regard to treatment options is critical.People who must navigate this often confusing and frustrating path will find this volume highly enlightening, engaging and helpful.
