It's So Much Work to Be Your Friend

Helping the Child with Learning Disabilities Find Social Success

Teachers, parents and caregivers know that children with learning disabilities are often ridiculed or ostracised by other children for their differences, and have difficulty making friends. The practical strategies in this book help children from six to 16 who have learning disabilities such as ADHD, nonverbal communication disorders, or visual/spatial disorders to overcome shyness, use appropriate body language to convey emotion, and develop skills that will enable them to have a successful social life.
