"Thomas Armstrong has written a positive and wholly constructive work."--Howard Gardner, author of Frames of Mind:The Theory of multiple Intelligences “He outlines the problem so clearly and so carefully that all parents should be able to see themselves, as well as their children, in its pages.”--Lendon H. Smith, M.D. “This is a kind, decent, caring book--one that should help parents through their children's schooling years and support children through their growing times.” --Herb Kohl author of 36 Children “This book should be required reading, especially for those who make educational policy.”--George Leonard, author of Education and Ecstasy

This book speaks to millions of parents and teachers with
children who are experiencing less than desirable success in
school. Thomas Armstrong,Ph.D., won't write these kids off as
"underachievers" or "unmotivated." He shows that in most cases
these children are individuals with distinct personal learning
styles (linguistic, spatial, interpersonal, etc.), and explains
how to help them acquire knowledge according to these sometimes
extraordinary aptitudes. With chapters on attitude, imagination,
attention, self-esteem,nutrition, exercise, and more, this book
offers inspiration useful in every home and classroom.
