'Parent and advocate extraordinaire, Pamela Tanguay has contributed immensely to the presently limited literature on NLD... Her advice is straightforward, sensible, cohesive and easily understood. This guide will not only serve as a welcome blueprint to the overwhelmed and under-supported parents of children with NLD, but also as an eye-opener to educators and other professionals working with individuals with NLD in helping them to recognize just how much effort it actually takes to parent a child with NLD...' -Sue Thompson, MA, CET, Learning and Behavior Specialist. Author of The Source for Nonverbal Learning Disorders (formerly I Shouldn't Have To Tell You) 'The author has provided a book that is essential reading for caregivers of children and adolescents with NLD.
