    This is another "must have" for a parent's library. I found this book interesting but I had a couple of problems with it. There were not a lot of tips in helping you figure out your child's learning style other than reading the descriptions. Most of the checklists and self tests seemed to be geared towards adults. My children are preschool age, so maybe as they get older they might more easily match up to some of the descriptions.

    I also didn't find a lot of practical tips for helping a child learn who fits into each category, other than the section on audio/visual learners. I think I'll try to pick this one up again in a few more years and see if it will make more sense.

    I like the information presented in this book. It helped define some of my child's tendencies and I am glad to have a resource that will help me support his learning process.

    I LOVED this book! My son is too young to have a predominant style, but I learned a LOT about myself and my husband!

    I liked the info. in this book. At first I didn't know if I would be able to apply the information I was getting. Then, I had to prepare a lesson for Sunday School...
    I found myself thinking that I had better write on the board so those kids who were more visual learners could get more out of the lesson...and I should make sure to include things to help the more auditory learners too...
    It was fun to discover in what ways I learn the best, what helps me remember better, how I take in information, etc.
    My favorite quote of the book, "...I'm not dumb, I'm global!"
