How I Learn: : A Kid's Guide to Learning Disability (Mom's Choice Award Recipient)

This book was fantastic!! My grade 2 child kept talking to me about another child in his class who was struggling academically. I had him read this book to understand what can cause a child to struggle. It led to a great conversation about disabilities and about judging others without knowing what they are dealing with. I would recommend this book to ANY child.

Bought this for a struggling Kindergarten student. :)

I wish I had this book a few years back when I first discovered the severity of my daughters focus issues. This is a nice discussion book for parents or educators to have with elementary age students about learning disabilities and how they affect people in different ways, and that it is o.k. The afterward portion is for the adult to read ahead of time so they see how to best make this into a conversational book. Since my daughter is older we read this portion together and chatted about our shared struggles with learning and some of the things we have found that help us, such as repetition, reading aloud, note taking, and scheduling.

I work in Children's Mental Health and found this to be an excellent resource to use with children. I would highly recommend it to others!

Didn't like how it explained the disability

An excellent view on learning 'differences' which provides insight for both child and adult.
