About this title

Review

"In her famous TED talk, the late Rita Pierson said, “Every

child deserves a champion; an adult who will never

give up on them, who understands the power of connection

and insists that they become the best they can

possibly be.” In Handwriting Brain-Body Disconnect,

Cheri Dotterer makes it clear that she is that champion

as she navigates you through the maze of dysgraphia.

This journey of understanding took Cheri many years,

so you are not left to figure this it out on your own. Her

personal insight and practical advice ensure you won’t

go it alone. Cheri shares her story about how she personally

navigated this process. She’s lived it. Now she

makes sure you know exactly what steps to take.

This book is about more than finding a way to help

with dysgraphia. It’s about finding a way for all of us

to work through our “invisible challenges.” Unlocking

dysgraphia is just a result when you care for those you

serve.

Cheri’s content is clear, concise, and an easy read

for parents, and it’s packed with content for therapists

Handwriting Brain-Body DisConnect

and teachers. Cheri wants you to see results, and these

steps will get you there.

I’m excited for you because in my conversations

with Cheri about learning differences, I know the content

in this book will give you the answers you’ve been

seeking. As an educator for over 20 years, I am passionate

about finding ways for all children to learn. I believe

this content will give parents hope that their children

will be able to do far above what they even believed

possible."

ENDORSEMENTS

“Cheri gives us a much-needed resource for children

who struggle with written expression,

and for the parents and teachers who work with them.

Her unique and in-depth perspective sheds new light

on a very misunderstood phenomenon.”

-Cristina Urban, MS, OTR/L,

parent of a child with dysgraphia

 

“An eye-opening resource! Cheri presents the information

in such an understandable and flowing manner

for parents, teachers, and therapists. She breaks down

and explains the types of dysgraphia with the focus on

building those “neural pathways”. I also appreciate

her transparency with sharing her own struggles.”

-Jorge Ochoa, OTR/L

 

Cheri is an exceptional speaker and a very good

communicator. Truly enjoyed her presentation and

everyone was enlightened by her knowledge of

Dysgraphia. Working on a hands-on activity during

her speech set the learning process in motion for the

group. We will invite Cheri back.

-Andee Swoyer, Community leader
