    Comments about The Gift of Dyslexia:

    I have read other books on dyslexia and found myself disappointed. The gift of dyslexia offered a different point of view and constructive, easily understood comments on dealing with the issue. Instead of harping on about advocating for your child and getting you child assessed this book offered real life solutions to what the author considers a solvable problem. I am now in complete agreement with the author, dyslexia is just a state of confusion and once this confusion is corrected the problem is solved. I have been recommending this book to anyone with a child that is having problems at school.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
