The Mislabeled Child

Submitted by Adeline Nai

It’s the best book I’ve read on learning differences, how to identify them, and the steps to take to help. Psychs and other experts are great, but you also need an idea of how to help since the parent is in the best position to do so (we’re on call 24X7!)

The book has chapters on the various issues, eg, CAPD, dyslexia, dysgraphia etc that can sometimes be seen as ADHD since the child has poor input and so cannot focus.

Ultimately, the authors give you strategies on how best to strengthen parts of the memory (and there are so many types!) to overcome the various issues. It’s truly worth a read.
