Summary
Whether they’ve failed a spelling test or dropped an easy pop fly, kids with learning disabilities hear those words far too often. It’s no wonder they often give hope. And it’s no wonder we sometimes overlook what Dr. Robert Brooks calls the “everyday courage” of our children. Dr. Brooks, a nationally known expert on learning disabilities, says we need to find each child’s “ island of competence” and then build on those strengths. He offers practical strategies for helping children develop the confidence and resilience they will need to succeed.
