Parents and teachers of gifted students with learning disabilities should be grateful for this definitive work on ``conundrum kids''the superb writer who can't add, the talented speech maker who can't write legibly. Chapters on young children provide practical suggestions and ideas for parents trying to decide when the child should start school and teachers trying to cope. The work also covers students up through college and deals with the topics of visual learning, motor functioning, auditory learning, language and learning, and psychological problems. Strategies for dealing with standardized tests and conquering the world of college are also included. An annotated bibliography completes this hallmark work. Joanne Troutner, Tippecanoe Sch.
