THE ABC’s OF LEARNING ISSUES, Dana Stahl

Do you know children who experience attention, anxiety, and learning issues? The ABCs of Learning Issues is a valuable resource that “helps parents better understand and support their children’s learning issues and behaviors by providing concrete strategies to help children reach their full potential,” according to Special Needs Book Review. Available in English and Spanish, the book helps parents and professionals work together to bridge the home-school gap, covers current educational topics, provides a glossary of terms professionals use, and identifies community resources where parents can find support. It also features an Ask Dana component where readers can ask the author confidential questions about their child’s individual profile.Winner of a 2019 National Parenting Products Award, The ABCs of Learning Issues is an empowering guide that’s been featured on Up Journey’s Best Parenting Books to Read in 2019 list and called a “great read” by MDR.”This magnificent contribution to understanding and embracing the diversity among people with disabilities will prove a timeless resource on the issue of multicultural and global importance.” Dr. George Haggerty, President Beacon College.

We talked about the origins of National Cheeseburger Day, and I shared two recipes: Caramel Cake and Cinnamon Bun Poke Cake.
