Review
"'This is an entertaining, informative and very practical book that will assist readers to 'walk the talk' through a more positive paradigm for enabling children with autism. It is based on careful and systematic thinking by the author and incorporates methodology based on research and best practice experience.' - Carmen Hengeveld, M.Sc., Registered Speech-Language Pathologist 'Dr. Heather MacKenzie has used a unique blend of theories of personality type, multiple intelligences and mediated learning to create an elegant and practical method. I have seen how well the application of the Learning Preferences and Strengths model works for children with autism. It is my firm belief that this method has broad applicability for any learner.' - Teeya Scholten, Ph.D., Registered Psychologist 'This is a practical, inspiring and stimulating book.' - Allison Waks, M.A., Registered Psychologist"
