Helpful for parents too this guide presents material in clear, ‘down-to-earth’ terms. "Dyslexia Screening: Essential Concepts for Schools & Parents is a perfect compendium that enables educators to take a proactive stance in the early identification and remediation of dyslexia." - Steven G. Feifer, D.Ed., ABSNP – 2009 National School Psychologist of the Year "Dyslexia Screening:  Essential Concepts for Schools & Parents really helped our district get a handle on dyslexia – what it is, how to detect it and what to do about it, especially as we needed to implement the new state law.” - Patricia Moulton, M.S.W. Special Education Coordinator, Brooklawn School District "I wanted to let you how much I enjoyed your book. I especially appreciated that you point out the qualitative observations that should take place during assessment that can be so incredibly crucial. For example, using marks to show that a student took a long time to decode a word, even if they decoded it correctly. Your book will be a great resource for teachers/districts who are so reluctant or so nervous to identify struggling students." - Kelli Sandman-Hurley, Ed.D.  Dyslexia Training Institute
