 I received a request from an undergraduate student asking for a  recommendation of a textbook she could read that would cover the basics on  Learning Disabilities.  She has a family member with suspected, yet  undiagnosed learning disabilities. She wants more than a few articles and  doesn't want to complete online training. She thinks that possibly a career in  teaching LD might be ahead for her and wants to begin reading a scholarly text  on her own time.
  
 Do you have any good recommendations?  If those of you that teach at  the undergraduate or graduate level can suggest some titles and authors, I will  forward this on to her.  Recommendations for all others will be gratefully  appreciated as well. 
  
  
 Thanks,
  
 Rochelle
