My Child’s Different: The lessons learned from one family’s struggle to unlock their son’s potential

By Elaine Halligan (Crown House Publishing, £12.99)

A fascinating book charting a parent’s struggle to get the right help for her severely dyslexic son, who was excluded from three schools by the age of seven. While the book is a chronological story of how the family coped with finding the right services and professional help, the book also offers a wealth of behaviour techniques, with insightful contributions from a parenting coach who supported the family throughout.
