Review

"ADDitutde: ""As a writer and educational specialist who has learning disorders, I found this book indispensable. Don’t go to a school meeting without it!""

Special Education Law Blog (http://specialedlaw.blogs.com): ""A Parent's Guide to Special Education…represents itself as an ‘insider's’ guide to the system. I am happy to report that the book lives up to this claim especially regarding the process of psychological testing…. This book tackles those issues in a readable way without oversimplification. The graphics and illustrations are clear and the needed concepts are well covered. The book also has many pointers for more effective advocacy. I certainly recommend this book to parents, and even to other attorneys and advocates, to assist in the process of effective advocacy."""

“This is one book that all parents should have in their personal library to better understand special education.”
