| The Overcomers: Christian Authors Who Conqured Learning Disabilities |
By Molly Noble Bull, Margaret Daley, Ginny Aiken, Jane Myers
Perrine, and Ruth Scofield
(Westbow Press, 2011)
This book shares first person perspectives on coping
with having a learning disability. Our
featured author this week, who has also been a teacher of special needs
students, shares her own journey.
I recommend this book for parents of children with
learning disabilities, persons diagnosed with learning disabilities, and for
teachers. It is a great resource for
what it is like to experience these difficulties first hand and to overcome
them, with God’s help.
My own husband and my son both had problems with
reading and both received vision therapy and special education services. I thank God that our son, now 10, who didn't read two years ago by himself, now is reading at the 11th grade level. And my husband is a successful marine engineer despite his early difficulties. Margaret’s comments paralleled much of what
my husband has said to me over the years. I really appreciate her sharing her experience with others.
Thank you, contributors to “The Overcomers:
Christian Authors Who Conquered Learning Disabilities” and keep getting your
message out there!

giveaway of one of Margaret’s fiction books (choice of book and format) we will be giving away a copy of The Overcomers: Christian Authors Who Conquered Learning Disabilities to a reader who would be one of the people I recommend this book to
