Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Using the proven methods he developed to overcome dyslexia, Ron Davis adapts those techniques to help sufferers triumph over a variety of common learning disabilities, including:
€ Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)
€ ADHD (the hyperactive variety)
€ Math deficiency (dyscalculia and acalculia)
€ Handwriting problems (dysgraphia and agraphia)
Outlining clear instructions, the author demonstrates that through a series of mental and physical exercises called 'Orientation Counseling' and learning tools called 'Symbol Mastery,' those struggling with these conditions can now learn how to correct them, embrace their gift, and enjoy learning.

This book has practical suggestions of how to meet the needs of those who have problems with math, attention, handwriting, and general learning concerns. The method may not make sense to those who do not struggle with these things, but it almost always makes sense to those who do. That is because it was written but someone who knew about this very first hand. Thanks, Ron.The Gift of Dyslexia the very first book and The Gift of Learning

This book includes a lot of information that is included in the "Gift of Dyslexia". I highly recommend it. It arrived in a timely manner and was exactly what I wanted.

This book taught me so much I didn't know about Dyslexia, and encouraged me to continue believing that Dyslexia is a gift from God that will help me in my life.

Although there are some helpful techniques that Davis describes ( Dial analogy, using clay etc.), this book presents ADHD, dyslexia and other learning challenges in an overly simplistic way that I did not find usefull. The basics of dyslexia and ADHD, according to Davis, can be solved through simple visualization techniques, such imaginging your "mind's eye" at a certain point behind your head in order to ground you. Basic explanations of cause and effect, using clay models, will supposedly, develop the concepts of consequences and order that ADHD children are missing. In reality, working with children with learning disabilities is much more complex and is rarely "solved" through a standard, one-size-fits- all visualization exercise. Having presented no scientific research or any sort of studies to independently back up his claims, Davis falsely creates expectations of magic cures and instant healing.

If your child is experiencing learning problems and you don't want to use medication - this is the book for you! Easy to follow "how to" that leads you step by step through the process necessary for overcomimg problems with handwriting, math or ADD. Ron Davis uses very clear, easy to understand language, and writes from more than two decades of personal experience in the field. A great resource for any family with a child who is not achieving his or her potential!
