Book Reviews of A Mind at a Time: America's Top Learning Expert Shows How Every Child Can Succeed
Book Review: A MIND IN TIME & A LIGHTHOUSE IN HAPPY VALLEY
Summary: 5 Stars
A MIND IN TIME came highly recommended for people like (all of) us who face certain uncertain challenges. Ourselves & our dear children & friends. I bought it for my partner in these tasks. She read it & found it very helpful. I will read it next. Because MEL LEVINE's work on the 8 neurodevelopmental mind systems seems to put an important focus on a vital view. Because it appears he's also worked up some practical strategies.
From my experience & study I do believe that we ARE what we think, among other considerations. So HOW do we think, how do we LEARN to think, how do we THINK about all this ? There is much we can learn.
A salute to MR. LONDON & all who labor in these fields ! A million thumbs up to all who struggle here ! There is much we can do NOW to make our lives & our children's lives much happier & healthier ! Let us ALL be encouraged, with good reason ! Even knowing that this is very difficult work & that we sometimes (often) do NOT get the results we may want or need & in fact suffer immensely !
I may have more to say after I read A MIND IN TIME. I expect it will be a very valuable read.
We got A MIND IN TIME from LIGHTHOUSE BOOKS, an excellent AMAZON partner. A "new" copy retailed for $ 15 @ BORDERS by The Water Tower on Michigan Avenue in Chicago but was out of stock there. LIGHTHOUSE BOOKS had it "used" in stock for $ 1. LIGHTHOUSE BOOKS's copy was in even better condition than described. Just as good as "new." Shipping was several days quicker than promised or expected. LIGHTHOUSE BOOKS is an unusually effective & highly economical resource for booklovers. HAPPY VALLEY ? That's where they live !

Summary: 5 Stars
This book has changed my way of working with struggling students! I am more alert to their strengths and more willing to help them "demystify" their learning deficits. In a perfect world, every teacher would be trained to implement Dr. Levine's strategies.
