Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: Packed with info for understanding dyslexia Shaywitz packs this book with tons of information on dyslexia including the science on how the dyslexic brain learns. She also includes the best ways to teach reading for dyslexia and the importance of keeping the student's sense of worth intact. She reminds us that people with dyslexia are bright, creative individuals who simply learn in a different way. I love her positive view of dyslexia and her desire to be an advocate for all those who struggle. This is an excellent book and I recommend it to anyone who wants to understand dyslexia. This should be required reading for all elementary teachers who are bound to have students with dyslexia in their classes. If only I had been told of this book years ago... This book is powerful. If I had known about this book years ago maybe my son would be a reader by now and would not have had to go to a literacy center! This book give a lot of useful information, plans, strategies. Things that I have never had for my son. Nor have I understood what was going on in this head. This book is not only important for parents to read, educators should also read it! Excellent book for anyone interested in this subject This is a very informative book, written in an easy to read style. It gives an excellent definition of dyslexia, the history of how it's been treated in the past, the exact location of the cause of the problem in the brain, and how best to treat it now. We know so much more about it since the advent of functional magnetic resonance brain imaging. This a great book for teachers, parents, and adult dyslexics themselves. Solid I cannot improve on what other reviewers have written but this is a solid book with lots of good information. It provides more theoretical base and less practical suggestions than I was expecting but it is a good starting point. best resource to explain dyslexia This is a great resource for both parents and professionals in that it explains the nature of dyslexia in easy to understand terms based on neuropsychological research. | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
