Every brain learns differently-and every child deserves the opportunity to succeed.
Ten-year-old Matthew is smart, creative, and especially good at math. But reading can be difficult. Letters sometimes seem to trade places, long directions slip away, and reading aloud makes his stomach flutter.
With encouragement from his family, teachers, and a caring school psychologist, Matthew discovers that having a learning disability does not mean he cannot learn. It simply means his brain processes some information differently-and there are many tools that can help.
As Matthew practices new reading strategies, learns to ask for assistance, and recognizes his many strengths, his confidence begins to grow. He is not racing anyone. He is learning at his own pace and in his own way.
Warmly illustrated and reassuring, Learning My Own Way helps children understand:
- Why people learn in different ways
- How evaluations can identify helpful support
- Why asking for help is courageous
- How learning tools and extra time can make a difference
- Why every child is intelligent, capable, and worthy of respect
An encouraging picture book for children with learning differences-and for the families, teachers, counselors, and classmates who support them.
