Quote by Dana Leonard, Life Skills Exceptional Children’s Teacher, Davidson County Schools/Ledford High School, Thomasville, NC: "I found the chapters easy to read as well as easy to return to and locate information you wanted to return to. Each chapter had examples for the reader that were relevant to the topic and things that a teacher could see using in the classroom. It was an excellent review for me, so I think veteran teachers will benefit from the book."
