Customer Reviews

Great Book!

I have been a special education teacher for 10 years and I found this book incredible informative and full of practical information. Highly recommended!

Very Helpful Guide

As a high school teacher with several special education students in my classes, I found this book to be extremely informative. Written in plain language rather than a medical text, it helped me to understand better the problems these students face. The book contains numerous suggestions for activities and techniques that I have tried and they were very effective. I strongly recommend this book for any teacher (and parent)who deals with special needs children.

Wonderful Resource for Parents as well as Educators

I have two special needs children and have found this volume indispensable. The material is presented in a concise, clear manner. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
