Publisher Description

This program explains the concepts of Davis Dyslexia Correction for people who would rather listen than read. At the age of 38, Ronald D. Davis made a discovery about a perception that enabled him to read a book cover to cover: for the first time. The methods he developed have helped thousands of children and adults around the world to overcome reading, writing, study, and attention problems.

You will have a step-by-step procedure to correct procedural difficulties and confusions about written language. The two basic techniques discussed are Orientation Counseling and Symbol Mastery. Many parents with no special training have achieved excellent results by using this program.

"This book was exactly what we needed to see. It goes through explaining dyslexia in a way that a non-dyslexic parent can really understand. It also explains in detail how the Davis Method of treatment works. A must read if you think your child may have dyslexia or dysgraphia. "
