Will My Kid Grow Out of It?


A Child Psychologist's Guide to Understanding Worrisome Behavior
Bonny J. Forrest

Summary
A parental road map to navigate a child's mental health

Helping parents determine whether their child's behavior is typical for the age or, possibly, a sign of something
more serious they should look into, Will My Kid Grow Out of It? uses lay terms and concrete examples to aid
adults in establishing if their child may have a commonly diagnosed issue such as ADHD, depression, a learning
disability, and others; where to go to get help; how to get support from schools and the medical community; and
what questions to ask along the way. Each chapter expands on a specific set of behaviors that may be
problematic by listing types of problems, possible diagnoses, the types of treatments that have been found to be
effective, discussions of the pros and cons of alternative treatments, and typical medications. The book provides

Dyslexia and ADHD


The Miracle Cure
Wynford Dore

Summary
A controversial drug-free method of treatment for learning disabilities, the Dore program has been hotly debated
in the medical community. In this account, the man who began it all shares how dyslexia impacted his life and
why the program he created works, complete with success stories.
One man's quest to help his daughter led to the start of a whole new way of treating learning and attention
difficulties, and this is his astounding story. When she was only nine years old, Susie Dore was diagnosed as
dyslexic and told that nothing could be done to help her. Her increasing depression eventually led to three
suicide attempts. Wynford set about finding a way to help her, selling his multimillion-dollar business and pouring
his fortune into researching dyslexia and learning difficulties. His team of researchers showed that, almost
invariably, these problems are caused by an incomplete physiological development and that an answer to them
John Blake might be found in a specialized exercise program. This revolutionary book captures the findings that Dore

Rethinking ADHD
Integrated Approaches to Helping Children at Home and at School
Vicki Anderson, Tim Godber

Summary
A comprehensive and balanced approach to diagnosis and treatment is provided in this guide to ADHD. With the
number of children diagnosed with ADHD increasing each year, the book suggests that doctors and parents too
often rely on drugs without discussing long-term effects or treating contributing factors. This fresh analysis
acknowledges that external factors such as the quality of long-term childcare facilities, the frenetic pace of
modern life, social disadvantage, and emotional disruption caused by divorce and family dysfunction all contribute
to children's ability to learn, concentrate, and self-regulate behavior. Case studies and practical
recommendations for working in partnership with parents and children with behavioral and attention problems are
included. Beneficial for teachers, psychologists, therapists, childcare workers, counselors, social workers, and
parents, this resource provides a deeper understanding of children with attention and behavior problems.

ADHD
How to Deal with Very Difficult Children
Alan Train

Summary
The causes of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are a matter of debate, but the problems that it
creates can have a disastrous effect on a child's ability to learn, socialize, and lead a normal life. Directed at
parents and teachers, this guide explains what the condition is, how it is diagnosed and what they can do to
help the child in a positive and lasting way. It also addresses the needs of the adults, recognizing that they
must first learn to deal with their own reactions and emotions. The treatment the resource advocates is aimed
at enabling the child with ADHD to acquire techniques of self-control that will give him or her the strength to
cope and which can be developed and refined through the years to adulthood. Drug therapy, the book stresses,
should be considered as an effective complement to the measures which can be adopted by both home and
school.

More Attention, Less Deficit


Success Strategies for Adults with ADHD
Ari Tuckman

Summary
This is the only book on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) written in a structure that caters to the
tendency for adults with ADHD to jump around. This essential guidebook begins by describing how the ADHD

explanation of standard treatment options-including medication, therapy, and coaching-as well as alternative
treatments, helps guide adults with ADHD to get the most from their healthcare providers. From there, the book
provides an extensive collection of practical strategies to overcome common struggles in the areas of self-
esteem, work, relationships, friendships, parenting, and everyday life. It covers everything from time

Train Your Brain for Success


A Teenager's Guide to Executive Functions
Randy Kulman

Summary
Executive functions are a set of thinking, problem-solving, and self-control skills that tell the brain what to do,
and this book demonstrates the ways kids use executive functions in school, at home, and in their other
activities and shows how these skills can be improved through sustained effort. Beginning with a test to
determine executive-functioning strengths and weaknesses, the book then explores in detail eight distinct sets
of skills, including planning, organization, focus, time management, self-control, flexibility, memory, and self-
awareness. In addition to giving an overview of each executive-functioning skill and how these skills are used in
the real world, the book-intended as a self-directed learning guide for students themselves-also provides teens
tools and tips for improving executive functions, including how to use video games, iPods, cell phones, and other
electronic media to their advantage. A section for teachers and parents who may be dealing with a teenager

Not Stupid
Anna Kennedy

Summary
When Anna and Sean Kennedy discovered that their sons Patrick and Angelo suffered with Asperger's Syndrome
and autism respectively, they were truly devastated-but their family's troubles were just beginning. Placed in
mainstream nurseries and schools, Patrick and Angelo endured traumatic experiences in a system woefully
equipped to cater for their complex needs. Like so many parents, Anna and Sean, having been turned away by
no fewer than 26 special needs schools when searching for appropriate educational facilities for the boys, were
down-but not out. The local education authority had a fight on its hands. Anna was determined to prove that for
children like her sons, the challenges of growing up with autism did not have to end in defeat.Through sheer guts
and determination, they turned their situation into a victory for parent power by transforming a disused local
school into a center of excellence for the care and support of those with autism. Anna's story, and that of her
ever-improving sons, is a beacon of inspiration for parents of special needs children everywhere.

Dads and Autism


How to Stay In the Game
Emerson B Donnell

Summary
With the divorce rate of parents of an autistic child estimated to be as high as 85%, this resource finally
addresses this heartbreaking statistic and shows parents how to beat the odds. Recognizing an autistic child's
inability to connect with other people, and how this can particularly affect fathers, the tools and examples
provided here will teach dads how to connect and help them stay the course. These specific strategies to
develop affection and proper emotional response are designed to break a child through the gray shell of autism
and blossom the colorful humanity that is hidden within. The book also delves into all the current theories of

Children and Babies with Mood Swings


New Insights for Parents and Professionals
Stanley I. Greenspan, Cindy Glovinsky, Ira Glovin...

Summary
Addressing the challenges of living with a child whose moods are extreme and unpredictable, this book
transcends traditional tendencies and diagnoses by discussing mood swings in terms of how they develop,
instead of presenting the reader with the usual list of symptoms and treatments. The complex interplay between
children's emotional states and the various developmental milestones that lie along the pathway to adulthood are
described, offering hope to parents by giving them a whole new way of looking at an old problem that
paradoxically seems to be increasing in modern times.

A Medical Miracle, a Friendship, and the Weird World of Tourette Syndrome
James A. Fussell, Jeffrey P. Matovic, Jeff Foxwort...

Summary
When Jeff Matovic burst into the office of Dr. Robert Maciunas, he had very few options left. Matovic had
suffered for years from Tourette Syndrome, his full-body spasms and outbursts getting progressively worse, to
the point that he saw suicide as a viable option. Drugs, physical therapy, prayer-nothing was working. But Dr.
Maciunas was a pioneer in deep brain stimulation (DBS), a new therapy that had worked to correct other brain
disorders. Could it fix Matovic's Tourette's? All Matovic had to do was convince Dr. Maciunas that he was a
perfect candidate for the procedure. That, and have several electrical leads-a "brain pacemaker"-implanted into
his skull.

Author Jim Fussell is uniquely qualified to tell Matovic's story-he suffers from Tourette Syndrome as well. Fussell's

The Unabashedly Human Experience of Raising Kids with Disabilities

novice storytellers, including original essays by Robert Rummel-Hudson, Ayun Halliday, and Kerry Cohen, this
assortment of authentic, shared experiences from parents in the know is a partial antidote to the stories that

The Girl Who Bites Her Nails and the Man Who Is Always Late
What Our Habits Reveal About Us
Ann Gadd

Summary
This look at people's most common habits and their meanings argues that unconscious behavior is often the
physical manifestation of an emotional state of mind. Habits that seem to ease tension in the short term-such as
nailbiting, and cigarette smoking-may actually be detrimental to a person's health or relationships, and
understanding the issues behind such familiar habits is the first step toward changing these behaviors. A catalog
of 70 common habits includes relevant case studies and concrete ways that have worked to overcome each
specific negative behavior pattern.

La bipolaridad como don


Como transformar la inestabilidad emocional en una bendicion
Eduardo H. Grecco

Summary
A unique treatise on the nature and consequences of bipolar disorder, this book argues that if the emotional
oscillations experienced by individuals with the disorder have come to be considered a disadvantage or a
dysfunction, it is because medicine and psychology have treated them as such. The study-which examines the
characteristics of bipolarity and its corresponding manic and depressive episodes in depth-holds that, rather than
a brain disorder that can only be managed by chemical means, the condition is the result of undeveloped talents
and can be cured by affirming and channeling those skills into appropriate outlets.

Un tratado único sobre la naturaleza y las consecuencias del trastorno bipolar, este libro arguye que si las

Despertar el don bipolar


Un camino hacia la curación de la inestabilidad emocional
Eduardo H. Grecco, Jose Luis Cabouli

Summary
An enlightened and unique approach to bipolar therapy, this analysis argues that, rather than using external
tools and methods to find equilibrium between mania and depression, a more effective therapeutic approach
focuses on the patient's talents and innate strengths. The author advocates for a multidisciplinary treatment for
bipolar disorder, one that makes use of the patient's creativity, body movement, and emotional ties. The vision
of psychopathology that is presented is an overwhelmingly positive one that will be of use for both patients as
well as therapists.

Dealing with Disappointment


Helping Kids Cope When Things Don't Go Their Way
Elizabeth Crary

Summary
Walking parents through the concept of emotional competency, this practical manual argues that it begins by
teaching children to identify and acknowledge their feelings. The book provides exercises and examples that
demonstrate how children-including toddlers-can cope with their emotions, using problem-solving tools and self-
calming techniques such as exercise or a few minutes alone with a favorite book. The straightforward advice

how to prevent future problems. Just as importantly, it teaches caregivers how to remain calm themselves so
that they can recognize and manage both the causes and results of children's frustration.

Man, Interrupted
Welcome to the Bizarre World of OCD, Where Once More is Never Enough
James Bailey

Summary
James Bailey suffered from a bizarre and debilitating form of obsessive-compulsive disorder. He was acutely
anxious about mind-altering drugs getting into his system and warping his behavior. Paranoid questions would
routinely plague him. Were people trying to spike his food? Could he get high just by touching a photograph of a
marijuana leaf? The treatment program he went through brought him face to face with his nightmares. He was
asked to mingle and shake hands with the local junkies, overcoming his fear that whatever they had taken would
be transmitted to him through their skin. Thanks to his indomitable spirit, James is now able to see the absurdity
of many of the bizarre situations in which he found himself. His quirky sense of humor combined with his strength
of character helped him to recover and go back out to face the world again.

Doug Wilhelm

Summary
The sequel to The Revealers, this realistic young adult novel deals with a timely and urgent issue for adolescents
and their schools-cyberbullying. The suspenseful and engaging story is the first to deal with the full-range of
behaviors that fall under the umbrella of cyberbullying, using an expanded cast of characters to portray the
rumor-spreading politics of an entire middle school. A conflict arises between a ruthless group of ultrapopular
eighth graders and a motley but creative group of classmates who challenge and infuriate them, creating an
absorbing and relatable tale of modern youth.

Beating the Bullies


Twenty Inspiring True-Life Stories of Triumph Over Violence, Intimidation and Bullying
Polly Clarkson

Summary
Bullying can ruin people's lives, and in some extreme cases, lead to self-harming, suicide, and even murder. This
book brings together some of the most profoundly moving stories of people whose lives were on the brink of ruin
but who fought back against all odds and beat their bullies. For some, the bullying went on for years; for others
it was less frequent. One thing they all have in common is their determination and courage to stand up to their
tormentors. Challenging, powerful, and inspiring, Beating the Bullies celebrates the victims and their fighting
spirit.

Not My Fault
Leif Kristiansson, Dick Stenberg

Summary
Written from the perspective of the schoolyard, this simply illustrated tale stimulates thought on issues of
responsibility. When the classmates of a young boy who has been bullied all deny blame for the incident, they
offer many common excuses why they declined to step in on their peer's behalf. The familiar, first-person
narration of the young characters begs the question, Does it really have nothing to do with me? The story
closes with a series of powerful images of global strife, making the connection between simply not stepping in to
help someone and standing by while wider atrocities go on.

Hangman
Julia Jarman

Summary
Toby's heart sinks when he hears that Danny Lamb is coming to Lindley High School. Danny will expect Toby to
be his friend, and Toby doesn't want that again. It was bad enough in the infant school. Danny is different -
that's the trouble - though it's hard to say exactly why. Being Danny's friend would destroy his street credit and
put his friends off him. He doesn't want to harm Danny, and he wouldn't bully him. Of course not. But on a school
trip to Normandy, close to the D-Day beaches where men fought to defeat Fascism, a harmless game goes
dreadfully wrong.

"Jarman provides a searing insight into the mindlessness of bullying and the fickleness of so-called friendship." -

Bullies, Bigmouths and So-Called Friends


J. Alexander

Summary
Most books about bullying tell children how to act without addressing how they feel-you can't act brave and
confident if you feel stressed and helpless inside. Jenny Alexander's approach is to develop readers' psychological
defenses. Through a mix of exercises, quizzes, and fictional scenarios, she combines common sense with simple
cognitive techniques to build up children's self-esteem. Her tone is humorous and upbeat, but always sensitive to
the reader's feelings.

J. Alexander has written numerous fiction and nonfiction books for children, including Going Up!, How to Be
Happy, and the Literacy Land series.

From Firestarter and Skarrs author Catherine Forde comes a story of an overweight boy and victim of bullying
who finds out that anything is possible
Jimmy Kelly is fat-lardy, ginormous, clinically obese. But inside, Jimmy doesn't feel like Smelly Kelly, Fat Boy Fat.
He's just normal. Like other boys his age, his bedroom's a pit, his feet stink, and he hates getting up on school
mornings. If any of his classmates bothered to talk to him, instead of slagging him off, they'd find he's just as
clued in as they are on films, books, TV, even sports. Although he wouldn't tell them that his secret talent is
cooking. But Jimmy has another secret that even he doesn't know yet-a secret that will change him forever.

Hearing Loss
From Stigma to Strategy
Michael Simmons

Summary
Literally millions of people in Britain are affected by hearing loss, and the number is growing steadily. For many, it
is a desperate situation, for others, an unwished-for challenge: to enter the world of hearing aids and gadgets,
and to somehow come to terms with other people's jokes-blindness is never laughed at-and the need to adjust a
muffled, or even silent, environment. Michael Simmons, a distinguished international journalist until his retirement
in 1997, has age-related hearing loss. Researching for this book, he soon realized it was a very poor relation in
the deafness field. Deafness itself has been the subject of many, many books for many generations. Hearing
loss, on the other hand, is swept under the carpet, under-researched, under-funded while also being routinely
exploited by unscrupulous hearing appliance manufacturers. Simmons examines the stigma and the suffering of
hearing loss, traces the history of fellow sufferers and the remedies they-and their partners-have tried, and goes

The Mask of Benevolence


Disabling the Deaf Community
Harlan Lane

Summary
A look at the gulf that separates the deaf minority from the hearing world, this book sheds light on the
mistreatment of the deaf community by a hearing establishment that resists understanding and awareness.
Critically acclaimed as a breakthrough when it was first published in 1992, this new edition includes information
on the science and ethics of childhood cochlear implants. An indictment of the ways in which experts in the
scientific, medical, and educational establishment purport to serve the deaf, this book describes how they, in
fact, do them great harm.

Kami and the Yaks


Andrea Stenn Stryer, Bert Dodson

Summary
Just before the start of a new trek, a Sherpa family discovers that their yaks are missing. Young Kami, anxious
to help his brother and father maintain their livelihood, sets off by himself to find the wandering herd. A spunky
deaf child who is unable to speak, Kami attempts to summon the yaks with his shrill whistle. Failing to rout them,
he hustles up the steep mountainside to search the yaks' favorite grazing spots. On the way he encounters the
rumblings of a fierce storm which quickly becomes more threatening. Surmounting his fear of being alone in the
midst of treacherous lightning and hail, Kami uses his heightened sense of observation to finally locate the yaks.
Reunited with their animals, the astonished family is once again able to transport their gear and guide the
mountain climbers into the majestic terrain.

A Journey Into the Deaf-World


Harlan Lane, Robert Hoffmeister, Ben Bahan

Summary
In this comprehensive and engrossing study, three distinguished scholars of Deaf culture-one hearing, one deaf,
and one coda (child of deaf adults)-offer clear, penetrating insights into the existence and makeup of the deaf
world, the community whose natural language-American Sign Language in the United States-is manual and
visual. Bringing the latest social and cultural findings and theories into sharp focus, the authors take us on a
fascinating journey to discover what deaf culture is; the benefits of signed language and deaf culture for deaf
children and hearing people; how deaf children are now educated and how they could be; how deaf people
integrate into the larger society; the nature of American Sign Language; how technology helps (and hurts) deaf
people; what can be learned from deaf societies in other lands; the future of the deaf world. Combining thought-

volume is vital for professionals working in fields involving deaf people and for those with an interest in ...

Queen, are devastated when they realize that their baby cannot hear or speak. But a Moonbird teaches the

Together with Janan Cain's sometimes zany characters, The Way I Act shows scenarios that kids can identify
with—peering at bugs with a magnifying glass, making a bed, finishing a puzzle, sweeping up a mess. The text
cites even more examples that define words such as curious, responsible, persistent and capable. The scenarios

Getting to Know Ruben Plotnick


Roz Rosenbluth, Maurie J. Manning

Summary
When the coolest kid in the class drops by David's house after school, David is worried about how popular, zany
Ruben Plotnick will react upon meeting unpredictable Grandma Rosie. Will he make fun of her to his classmates?
Will he imitate her whispery voice? What will he do if Grandma Rosie suddenly wants to dance? To his surprise,
and relief, David learns that although Ruben may be a joker, he has an instant rapport with Grandma Rosie and
accepts her odd behavior. In fact, when Grandma Rosie calls out, "Nate, let's waltz!" Ruben gallantly and proudly
dances around the kitchen with her. This heartwarming story of senility and school-age embarrassment reveals
the importance of looking beneath the surface to really get to know someone. By accepting Grandma with all of
her quirks, Ruben shows that he has a warm heart and can be a true friend.

Just Because
Rebecca Elliott

Summary
Amusing and often touching, this story encompasses the issue of disability in a charming celebration of sibling
friendship to which all children can relate
My big sister Clemmie is my best friend. She can't walk, talk, move around much, cook macaroni, pilot a plane,
juggle or do algebra. I don't know why she doesn't do these things. Just because.
A younger brother describes all the fun he has with the big sister he loves so much-just because, in this
heartwarming picture book about being perfectly loved, no matter what. He is enthusiastic about just how loving
and special she is, and delights in telling us about all the fun things they do together. Only as his tale unfolds
Lion Hudson does the reader begin to realize that his sister has special needs-and by then the reader just accepts, as he
9780745962351 does, all the wonderful things about her. Teachers and librarians will appreciate this book for its sincere and

The Classroom Teacher's Inclusion Handbook (2nd Edition)


Practical Methods for Integrating Students with Special Needs
Jerome C. Yanoff

Summary
Fourteen types of special-needs students are discussed in this handbook on meeting the needs of a diverse
student population within a mainstream classroom. Ranging from students with behavior disorders, ADHD, and
mental retardation to the blind, terminally ill, and gifted and talented, each profile includes a clear definition,
characteristic behaviors, and suggestions for working with that student's specific strengths and weaknesses. A
section devoted to inclusion strategies helps educators set goals for special needs students, define the roles of
other students in the classroom, and work with the administration if mainstream placement is unsuccessful.

200+ Educational Strategies to Teach Children of Color


Jawanza Kunjufu

Summary
With an emphasis on pragmatic approaches that can be accomplished in the classroom, this almanac of teaching
solutions provides inner-city educators with 100 all-new strategies to daily challenges. As turnover rates remain
excessively high among teachers in urban schools-83 percent of whom are white females who were ill-prepared
by their college programs-the type of firsthand experience offered by this helpful manual continues to be an
essential source of training. The advice and expertise presented is fully supported by real-life examples rather
than intangible theory, and the details directly tackle issues of race and class while offering a legitimate criticism
of the American school system that poses many of the problems that teachers face.

Juegos para niños con necesidades educativas especiales


Mónica Montes Ayala, María Auxilio Castro García

Summary
Addressing preschool and elementary school teachers, and reclaiming the theory of multiple intelligences, two
teachers show how to develop the bodily-kinesthetic, spatial, linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, and
personal intelligences of their students with special needs. Each teacher, according to whichever intelligence he
seeks to develop in his students at a given time, can select the appropriate game based on the information the
authors provide for each one: its purpose, the materials needed to carry it out, and evaluation criteria. This
extremely useful resource is based on the experiences of teachers who are specialized in the field of special
needs education, is easy to read and put into practice, and proves to be an invaluable tool for catering to
students with special educational needs in a proper and focused way.

Lynn Grasberg, Gina Oldenburg

Summary
Created by experts who teach improvisational theater, this resource for educators and youth workers provides
new and creative role-playing exercises that tackle a wide range of topics. From small pieces for a few people to

Summary
Based on Alan Wolfelt's six needs of mourning and written to pair with Companioning the Grieving Child, this
thorough guide provides hundreds of hands-on activities tailored for grieving children in three age groups:
preschool, elementary, and teens. Through the use of readings, games, discussion questions, and arts and

Sample activities include grief sock puppets, expression bead bracelets, the nurturing game, and writing an
autobiographical poem. Activities are presented in an easy-to-follow format, and each has a goal, an objective,

Desapegarse sin anestesia


Cómo soltarse de todo aquello que nos quita energía y bienestar
Walter Riso

Summary
One of the worst psychological ills that exist is emotional attachment. This type of dependency not only causes
suffering and infidelity, but it also creates an obstacle to personal growth. Walter Riso demonstrates that
attaching oneself to a person, object, activity, or sentiment in an obsessive or irrational way impedes obtaining a
full and happy life. These pages invite us to leave behind what we do not need, that which imprisons and ties
down our development, reducing the capacity we have to decide and act. Detaching oneself does not mean
renouncing passions or goals, or demonstrating indifference to others. Contrarily, it deals with assuming a free
existence, without encrypting individual wellbeing or the meaning of life in a specific aspect of reality.

It's Not Fair!


Parenting the Bright and Challenging Child
Gill Hines, Alison Baverstock, Jacqueline Wilson

Summary
How parents of bright and challenging children between 8 and 12 can identify and handle areas of concern, and
prepare for the challenges of the teen years
When parents find themselves answering yes to such questions as Can your child run rings around you, and
always have the last word? Is your child strong-willed and very independent for his or her age? Do they refuse
to take "no" for an answer?, it is likely that they have a "bright and challenging" child. While there are many
positives to parenting such children, it can also be very demanding. This guide, designed specifically for the
parents of young children who are independent, risk-taking, and hard to rein in, will explain why it is important to
set and reinforce boundaries, and how to do so. It also identifies the issues and risks that such children may
face, and helps parents to prepare for them. Parents will also learn how they and their child can discuss
sensitive issues together, such as sex and drugs, and will learn how to help their child to be more aware of the

The Handbook of Sandplay Therapy


Barbara A. Turner

Summary
The theoretical mechanics of Jungian sandplay, a nonverbal psychotherapy, are used to explain and illustrate
this valuable healing tool. Numerous clinical examples and explanations of the psyche, ego development, and
conscious and unconscious states are used to examine the technique's ability to make the psyche change
through psychological, mythological, and neurobiological paradigms in child and adult participants. Content
themes, such as allegory and alchemy, are touched upon alongside spatial themes that include placement and
the concept of center. Whether new to the field or veterans, clinicians will find this a solid basis on which they
may cultivate their practice.

Summary
Combining the fields of child psychology and child education, this groundbreaking work explores how engaging

Understanding Children's Sandplay


Lowenfeld's World Technique
Margaret Lowenfeld

Summary
Margaret Lowenfeld realized that play was the medium through which children worked out their emotional
conflicts and that it was a cognitive process which could be analyzed, in a non-Freudian way, to understand and
deal with behavior problems and also perhaps help children to develop. She developed the then new concept of
non-verbal communication, and methods and tools for using play as therapy and as a therapeutic and analytical
tool. This book follows on from her classic book Play in Childhood, which was published in 1935.

Author Bio
Margaret Lowenfeld was a pediatrician who became a pioneer of child psychology and psychotherapy who
Sussex Academic Press developed several educational techniques that are still widely used today.

stresses of being sick by focusing on the connection between the mind and the body. It also offers parents and
caretakers encouragement to face the emotional challenges of their child's illness. Medical scenarios and
vocabulary are explained for kids to help them better understand what is happening. Ideas for meeting doctors,
easing hospital visits, coping with pain and nausea, taking medications, and building fun and friendship into
recuperation will help children and parents through difficult times.

Keeping Black Boys Out of Special Education


Jawanza Kunjufu

Summary
This critical analysis looks at the disproportionate number of African American males in special education. Arguing
that the problem is race and gender driven, questions covered include Why does Europe send more females to
special education? Why does America lead the world in giving children Ritalin? Is there a relationship between
sugar, Ritalin, and cocaine? and Is there a relationship between special education and prison? More than 100
strategies to help teachers and parents keep black boys in the regular classroom, such as revising teacher
expectations, increasing parental involvement, changing teaching styles from a left-brain abstract approach to a
right-brain hands-on approach, redoing the curriculum, understanding the impact of mass media, and fostering
healthy eating habits.
