About this title

Synopsis

This book is about dyslexia and other learning disabilities, and the destruction they can potentially cause in many lives, but it is also about the opportunities for success that lies within the grasp of individuals with these disabilities. Linda Siegel's motivation for writing NOT STUPID, NOT LAZY is summed up in a single "I want us to understand individuals with learning disabilities as whole people and to see beyond the problems." 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.
