Dyslexia is a neurological brain difference affecting as many as one in five people. As dyslexia is a specific language-based condition that can hinder a person's ability to read, write, spell, and even speak, society cannot afford to neglect the nearly 20 percent of the school population exhibiting mild to profound characteristics of dyslexia. Some professionals posit that the majority of high school dropouts are dyslexic learners who simply give up. With the future of so many students on the line, educators must not allow these struggling learners to slip through the cracks and fall behind their peers.

To address these issues, Dr. Mamie B. Crockett and Dr. Walter L. Crockett created this guide for educators to help dyslexic learners. By describing the characteristics of dyslexia and related behavior disabilities, discussing various learning behaviors, and suggesting strategies for learning that match each behavior, the authors give educators a practical and implementable plan for teaching dyslexic learners.

With a glossary of terms and special resources including websites, online resources, and cutting-edge technology, this book is an invaluable tool for educators and parents in their quest to support and accommodate struggling readers and dyslexic learners.

Mamie B. Crockett is the cofounder and executive director of the Learning Tree Academic and Community Development Center. She received her MA in teaching from Manhattanville College and her PhD in educational leadership with a cognate in literacy from Jackson State University. She has taught students from kindergarten to the graduate level. For over ten years, she trained teachers to identify and implement "what works" for students with characteristics of dyslexia.

Walter L. Crockett is a visiting professor and associate director with the Executive PhD Program at Jackson State University. He received his PhD from The Ohio State University in educational research and development, with a cognate in counseling psychology. His career has been at the university level, where he has served in multiple academic and administration positions. He is an editor and published author and has conducted research in the areas of student motivation and academic performance.
