-from the foreword by Lisa Damour, PhD

'It is estimated that up to twenty percent of the population in the United States is dyslexic, many of whom are undiagnosed. This presents specific academic and psychosocial challenges for children, their parents,

and teachers. Yet, with the right perspective and understanding of how dyslexia can affect a child 1s development, barriers to learning can be minimized. Parenting Dyslexia provides prescriptive

advice and concrete tips to drive educational and personal growth while working to sidestep

associated stigma, effectively anticipating issues that dyslexic learners are likely to confront at

different stages of their education. Among the host of tools and approaches included are:

Establishing family practices to prevent a child's feelings of isolation, anxiety, and depression

Cultivating skills to balance out dyslexia's deficits

Developing effective self-esteem and academic habits to help overcome hurdles

This practical, relatable, comprehensive, and easy-to-use guide is grounded in science and

offers a wealth of effective methods for supporting dyslexic learners, written by a psychologist

who has been there herself and has specialized in learning differences for over twenty-five years.
