The Roadmap From Learning Disabilities to Success
Kathy Johnson, MS Ed.

A step-by-step guide for parents and educators to treat the symptoms of learning disabilities, ADD/ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Dysgraphia, and more!

"Nothing can be more frustrating to a parent than a child who can't read or learn. Unfortunately, parents often find themselves alone as their children continue to struggle despite educational intervention. The Roadmap to Success is an important guide for any parent that has a child with a learning problem. Mrs. Johnson provides us with an invaluable collection of information and resources that provides solutions rather than labels."
