Reviews for Creative Learners: Stories Of Inspiration And Success from People with Dyslexia, ADD, or Other Learning Differences

If I had access to stories such as those Selma has collected here, I wouldn't have fought my battles alone. If you know someone who is struggling to learn creatively, read this book... better yet, get them a copy. --PETE KIGHT, Founder, CheckFree Corporation Imagine a world where educators utilize differences to motivate students to achieve--Selma Ridgway has opened a portal to that world and we should embrace it forcefully. --AMBASSADOR ANDREW YOUNG These powerful stories will encourage and inspire struggling students, and those who work with them, as they seek their own creative ways to learn and achieve. --DORO BUSH KOCH, Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy While reading Creative Learners, my first thought was how do we get a Selma Ridgway in every public school, so we can show every student with a 'learning difference' ways to thrive and to love school? --DANIEL A. DOMENECH, Executive Director, American Association of School Administrators
