It's never easy to receive a diagnosis of mental retardation, especially if that report is about your own child. With each diagnosis my daughter received, I have made a habit of doing my own research alongside the pamphlets the doctors or therapists supplied. This book gives practical solutions to some of the issues faced when educating the mentally retarded, from mild to moderate to severe. What I especially appreciated is the fact that the authors kept a positive attidude when it comes to education and success for children with MR. I highly recommend this book for parents as well as professionals; it's easy to understand without the technical jargon which is found in many of the textbooks I've purchased. If you're looking for something to read which places MR in a positive light, this is a good book for you.
