The Survival
Guide for Kids with LD (Learning Differences)
(Revised and Updated Edition)
Rhoda Cummings, Ed.D., and Gary Fisher, Ph.D.
First published in 1990, this survival
guide has helped countless young people labeled “learning
disabled”—and the adults who care about them. Meanwhile,
laws have changed and technology has advanced. This revised
and updated edition retains the best of the original
edition: the warmth, affirmation, and solid information kids
need to know they’re smart and can learn, they just learn
differently. It answers the many questions they have, like
“Why is it hard for kids with LD to learn?” and “What
happens when you grow up?” It explains what LD means (and
doesn’t mean); defines different kinds of LD; describes what
happens in LD programs; helps kids deal with sad, hurt, and
angry feelings; suggests ways to get along better in school
and at home; and inspires young people to set goals and plan
for the future.
