The Overcomers

<p>Did you ever try to push a one hundred–pound rock up a hill with nothing but a toothpick? If you can imagine what that might be like you have some idea how difficult it is for a child with a learning problem to read or spell ten simple words.</p><p> </p><p>It takes a huge amount of energy to push a heavy rock up a hill. It takes an equal amount of mental strength for a child with dyslexia to read and spell and at the end of either of these strenuous activities both the rock pusher and the child are exhausted.</p><p> </p><p>Five published Christian authors with learning disabilities wrote this book from their own experiences. It is their hope that others will be encouraged from reading how they overcame.</p><p> </p><p>“An inspiring account of five amazing women authors who demonstrated how creativity and perceptual talents go hand-in-hand with dyslexia and ADD.”</p><p>—Ronald D. Davis author of <em>The Gift of Dyslexia: Why Some of the Smartest People Can't Read and How They Can Learn</em> and <em>The Gift of Learning: Proven New Methods for Correcting ADD Math & Handwriting Problems.</em></p><p> </p><p>“<em>The Overcomers</em> is a must-read for anyone with a learning disability or knows someone who suffers from that problem.
