OK, with summer coming I am hoping to plan a few jaunts to the beach and maybe actually have some time to do a little more reading.  This summer, I am hoping to read, "The Mislabled Child" by Drs. Brock and Fernette Eide.

Has anyone read it?  What did you think of it? 

What other books on the topic of learning and attention issues would you recommend for summer reading?

Re: LD Summer Reading Suggestions
Lots of wonderful suggestions here! I am heading to subscribe to ADDITUDE Magazine. I did not know there was a magazine like this! Thanks very much!

By the way, I love Ross Greene. He has helped me on more than one occasion.

I don't know these books and I want to read them - you've been given some very interesting suggestions. Mine would be The Myth of The Lazy Child by Mel Levine, MD -it's my favorite when it comes to learning and attention issues.

Re: LD Summer Reading Suggestions
I agree -- some books not only are good for summer reading, but lend themselves to become reference books that are always available when needed :)

Thanks for the suggestion smwf02.

Get Scattered and and Scattered Mind by Dr. Gabor Mate
They deal with ADHD and really helped us to help our son who has as well as helping my husband to understand himself better as well. There are some great insights. I reread this book from time to time when my son starts to struggle. We also get the ADDITUDE Magazine for people with Attention Deficit it covers everything from young children to Adults and areas for parents one how to keep it all together.Hope it helps. I thank Dr Johnson for the suggestion as well I will add it to my summer list.
