As a therapist working with many children who have learning difficulties, and as a parent of a child with learning disabilities, I highly recommend this book. Having a child struggling in the school system can be very stressful and confusing for the parent. Research shows that if learning difficulties are not addressed early and effectively, the child's educational struggles and the associated emotional problems will only escalate to negatively impact a child throughout his or her life.
Ms. Heyen's book, Learning with Matthew, empowers the parent with information and guidelines on what to do to address the child's needs and the steps to take towards resolving the problem. Children will also learn that their struggles and feelings are normal and there is help and hope. This book has been added to my list of resources that includes LD online, Schwab Learning, Internet Resources for Special Children, and Wrightslaw.
