they?' - www.family2000.org.uk 'This readable and useful little
book has been written by a mother of two dyslexic sons. She writes
about the hard road she travelled to find help and support for
them. The book covers most of the questions that the parents of a
dyslexic child would want answered, but it is just as useful to
professionals who have a dyslexic child in their classroom or
setting. The importance of early identification is stressed and the
author provides useful information about tests which can be
administered to children as young as four years old. There are
informative chapters about the various successful techniques and
strategies for working with dyslexic children, ranging from the
well-publicised rose-coloured spectacles to the part played by a
special diet.' - Nursery World Over the years, many quick fix
approaches to cure dyslexia have been developed and used. These
'miracle cures' have offered hope to many parents who are left
disillusioned by the school system and health service. With no
other way to turn, many parents spend more and more money on
special glasses, vitamins, exercises and specialist advice, but do
they actually work? Written by a parent of two dyslexic sons, who
herself searched for anything that would 'cure' them, this new book
is a practical guide to dyslexia's many 'miracle cures'. Practical
Strategies for Living with Dyslexia suggests that early
identification of this condition may be the key. Dyslexia is often
not diagnosed until children have started school, yet testing is
now available from the age of four-and-a-half. On top of this many
dyslexics also have eye and ear problems that go undetected, which
further exacerbates the problem. Looking at the possible remedies
available, such as tinted glasses, nutritional supplements and
exercising, and considering the benefits of early identification of
dyslexia, this book will be an essential practical resource for
both the parents of, and the professionals who work, with people
with dyslexia.
