    This book came new and undamaged. As for the contents of the book, I found that even as a non-education major, it was easy to understand and engaging. I learned a lot about what goes on behind the scenes when accommodating special needs children in an educational setting. I hope more future educators take the time to read this book!

    This is a great resource for anyone in the ECE field. All of us are people first, then all of the things that make us unique.

    Very helpful book. I had to purchase this book for my college education class since I want to become a teacher and I really enjoyed reading it.
  • Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2020
    I used this textbooks for a class on children with special needs. Other than a few minor glitches with the kindle version (some letters dropped from words - but I could still read the words fluently) it was a really well organized and created. The issues I had were more with the content of the book. I think some of the sections were lacking discussion about alternative therapies and how different populations are affected. Otherwise it is a straightforward summary of the disorders covered under IDEA and some therapies and tools for helping those students with any of the various disorders.

    I must be missing something but I am not quite sure why my book is missing 20+ pages. On the other hand, this book is very informative and also has the information I am looking for in order to review for an exam.
