Extracts from the review published in the Bulletin of the
Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists, volume number 568,
August 1999.
"..... The resource file and case discussion reviewed here are the
result of their (S.L.’s and T.T.’s) collaborative endeavour to rehabilitate
his learning. Collaborative is the operational word as the file
owes much to T.T.’s active involvement in his treatment. T.T.’s
case details are described in depth in the first section of the
pack. This provides relevant theoretical background for the following
sections in which assessment and intervention methods are described.....
The assessment section of the file addresses several skills for
which there is no other published assessment..... The file is designed
for LBL readers but the treatment ideas may prove particularly useful
with other adults with acquired reading disorders. Sue Lakin’s enthusiasm
and fascination for her task shine through, as does T.T.’s interest
in and perseverence with his therapy.... "

Extract from the review published in the Journal of Clinical
Speech and Language Studies, Republic of Ireland, November 2000.
"While the assessment and therapy was designed specifically for
the client with Letter-by-Letter Dyslexia, much of the material
could be useful for clients with other forms of acquired dyslexia
and would be a very useful resource for the clinician working with
this particular population."

Testimonials
"I would certainly find this a very useful resource. I found it
very interesting, particularly the case study and theory.... a good
balance between an academic piece and a reader-friendly piece....
There is a wealth of ideas for information gathering and therapy
each with clear instructions, worksheets and record sheets. ...many
of the ideas could be adapted for patients with other types of reading
problems."

"Sue Lakin has put together a comprehensive resource file for use
with clients with letter-by-letter dyslexia. All aspects of the
disorder are covered: theory, assessment and treatment as well as
a detailed case study. Anyone working with the disorder has to find
this useful. The author has to be commended for producing an innovative,
clear and useful resource."
