I loved this book from the first paragraph. It is comprehensive, well-researched and grounded in reality. Alison describes the subtleties and complexities of dyspraxia brilliantly and illustrates that it is very much more than a motor difficulty and impacts greatly in every area of life. A welcome addition to any book shelf but a MUST read for anyone who can affect the progress of a person's educational career and emotional well-being. -- Gill M. Dixon, Vice Chair, The Dyspraxia Foundation
