Description
The first chapter introduces us to five young people with different “kinds of minds” (Attention Deficit, Reading Disorder, Memory Problems, Language Disorder, Social and Motor Skills Problems). The next five chapters each highlight, anecdotally, one of those kids, showing how his or her mind works. The final chapter provides practical information and techniques for children and the adults who work with them, in each of the categories mentioned.
