Although dyslexia affects 10 to 15 percent of the U.S. population, only 5 out of every 100 dyslexics are recognized and receive assistance. If you're the parent of a child with dyslexia, this statistic can be disconcerting, especially when it comes to your child's academic performance and developing social skills.

The Everything Parent's Guide to Children with Dyslexia gives you a complete understanding of what dyslexia is, how to identify the signs, and what you can do to help your child.

This authoritative book seeks to alert parents to the special needs associated with this learning disability and offers practical suggestions for getting involved in the classroom. The Everything Parent's Guide to Children with Dyslexia shows you how to:

Select the right treatment programs for your child
Secure an IEP
Choose a school and reduce homework struggles
Develop your child's skills with the use of assistive technology
Maintain open communication and offer support

The Everything Parent's Guide to Children with Dyslexia is your first step in facing the challenges of dyslexia with a positive attitude. Abigail Marshall has been the manager of the www.dyslexia.com Web site and moderator of the Dyslexiatalk.com forum since 1995.
