Summary: More Science, Less Edubabble
Comment: The best part of this book is Dr. Melvin Levine's introduction. I would like to have read more of the doctor's analysis of this condition. The author only had the benefit of a six day class with Dr. Levine. I think a solid two semesters of pediatric neuropsychology would be more appropriate for anyone working in this area or teaching in general!

Although the author does a good job of describing the condition and has some excellent examples provided by afflicted children, she largely fails to provide a practical way out. She does little to discuss testing and how parents can deal with teachers and school systems. The bulk of the book is a blizzard of educationese about teaching writing. I am dealing with a 7th grader and her technics seems more appropriate to third graders.Fortunately, it is not an expensive book and I recommend it for that. You may find something useful here but I can't raise your hopes too high.
