Product Description

Book Description

A hands-on guide for parents that will help them to identify and manage their child's learning difficulty

Product Description

Many children spend their entire school lives struggling with their work. Research has shown that at least 10-15 per cent of children with apparently normal learning ability will show a significant problem with school learning. They may feel that whatever they do it is not good enough - either for their parents, their teachers or indeed themselves.This can often result in feelings of demoralisation, and even alienation from learning and school.This book aims to address these issues and to help parents understand and deal with them.

Dyslexia: A Parents' Guide starts by correcting common misconceptions rife in the press and popular literature, and addresses the conflicting approaches and advice from 'experts'. This authoritative guide then moves through diagnosis offering practical and easy tips for parents to overcome their child's learning difficulty.

Both authors are practising psychologists with extensive knowledge and experience of children's learning difficulties. They will show parents how to develop a successful approach to assessing and subsequently managing their child's difficulties.

Dyslexia book 11 Jun 2009
Format:Paperback
I found this book very informative. It told it in "plain english" and gave lots of advice and support. I very often pick it up and refer back to it. The questionaires in the book are good for those parents who are just on the brink of getting their child diagnosed.
Very helpful, and reassuring.... like talking with a good friend!

WOW!!! 6 Jun 2011
Format:Paperback
This book is great.... it puts things into parent language rather than doctor language. The little tests in the book and parent questions are great for getting an insight into how my daughter actually processes information, i didnt realise how much she was struggling as i am not in school with her but this book has given us a good idea into what goes on in her little mind and some great practical advise and exercises for us to do at home with her :)
