More than thirty million people in the United States are dyslexic—a brain-based genetic trait, often labeled as a “learning disability” or “learning difference,” that makes interpreting text and reading difficult. Yet even though children with dyslexia may have trouble reading, they don’t have any problems learning; dyslexia has nothing to do with a lack of intellect.

Fifth grade was the worst year of Marc's life. He stunk at gym class, math was too hard for him, the school lunch was horrible, and his class field trip was ruined because he couldn't swim. But what was the most awful thing about fifth grade? Kenny Williamson, the class bully, who called himself the "King of the Jungle". When Marc's mother tells him that his uncle Jake is coming to stay for the whole summer, Marc can't wait. Uncle Jake is a for-real super-cool Navy SEAL. And Uncle Jake has a plan.

Dyslexia has been misunderstood by many and hardly praised by any. The same is even more true for dyscalculia, which is another thing that leaves so many kids and adults frustrated. Having a hard time reading is definitely a part of being dyslexic, and I won't beat around the bush: It's not a good thing. However, what is often is perceived as a mere handicap by common ignoramuses is actually a deviant way of thinking - something that can trigger the involved individual to have hidden talents others may have underestimated.

Publisher's summary
Children and adults with learning or attention challenges are not broken. They don’t need to be fixed, but they do have some roadblocks to learning as easily and enjoyably as they could. Roadblocks can be removed. A stone can be taken out of a shoe. Neuroscience research and decades of clinical evidence prove that struggles associated with dyslexia and learning disabilities can be eliminated.
In this book, you’ll learn what lagging, but trainable skills lie at the root of most learning and attention challenges. Easy, practical strategies for parents and teachers will give you tools for supporting struggling learners with attention, behavior, executive function, comprehension, reading, writing, spelling, math, and more.
Most importantly, Take the Stone Out of the Shoe presents real solutions to the learning disability epidemic. The struggles that too many bright, frustrated students are experiencing can be changed.
Based on 36 years of neuroscience research and clinical work with students of all ages, as well as training parents, teachers, and therapists, Jill Stowell shares programs and the research behind them that allow students to successfully move forward to meet their potential. A band-aid approach to learning and attention challenges is no longer appropriate. It’s time to take the stone out of the shoe.

Dr. Jill Stamm translates the latest neuroscience findings into clear explanations and practical suggestions, demonstrating the importance of the simple ways you interact with your child every day. It isn't the right edutainment that nurtures an infant's brain. It is as simple as attention, bonding, and communication, and it's within every parent's ability to provide.

In accessible language and with periodic references to Star Trek, motorcycle daredevils, and near-classic movies of the '80s, developmental molecular biologist John Medina explores the neurological and evolutionary factors that drive teenage behavior and can affect both achievement and engagement. Then he proposes a research-supported counterattack: a bold redesign of educational practices and learning environments to deliberately develop teens' cognitive capacity to manage their emotions, plan, prioritize, and focus.

Should you really read to your baby? Can teaching a baby sign language boost IQ? Should you pipe classical music into the nursery? Dr. Jill Stamm translates the latest neuroscience findings into clear explanations and practical suggestions, demonstrating the importance of the simple ways you interact with your child every day. It isn't the right edutainment that nurtures an infant's brain. It is as simple as attention, bonding, and communication, and it's within every parent's ability to provide.

Many of us know we're putting too much pressure on our kids - and on ourselves - but how do we get off this crazy train? We want our children to succeed, to be their best, and to do their best, but what if they are not on board? A few years ago, Ned Johnson and Bill Stixrud started noticing the same problem from different angles: even high-performing kids were coming to them acutely stressed and lacking any real motivation. Many complained that they had no real control over their lives.

Our thought lives have incredible power over our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. In fact, our thoughts can either limit us to what we believe we can do or release us to experience abilities well beyond our expectations. When we choose a mindset that extends our abilities rather than placing limits on ourselves, we will experience greater intellectual satisfaction, emotional control, and physical health. The only question is... how?

When Duke University gave free iPods to the freshman class in 2003, critics said they were wasting their money. Yet when the students in practically every discipline invented academic uses for the music players, suddenly the idea could be seen in a new light - as an innovative way to turn learning on its head. Using cutting-edge research on the brain, Cathy N. Davidson show how attention blindness has produced one of our society's greatest challenges.
