A special guide for both parents and educators, The Learning Differences Sourcebook identifies and evaluates learning differences and various methods of providing the best home and school environment for a child with a learning difference. It describes the behaviors of numerous learning differences plus medical psychosocial issues that interfere with learning and provides parents and educators with all the information they need to successfully manage the special needs of a child with a learning difference.
The Learning Differences Sourcebook, has been one of the most user friendly references that I have used. This book answered all of my questions for different components that make up childrens learning differences. The discriptions of the differences were easy to understand, useful, and applicable to the job I do. I highly recommend.

I'm really pleased with this book. I especially like that the term "Learning Differences" is used. The first few chapters are for people using professionals in the community. I did not find them helpful in my case. I did find the "non- professional" terminology helpful. The guide has specific ideas that can be implimented in a non-school, non-professional, parent controlled enviornment. Very parent friendly book. Also supportive of the alternative of homeschooling for children with these differences.
