The Don’t-give-up Kid, 4th edition

First title in The Coping Series

Author: Jeanne Gehret, M.A. Illustrations by Michael LaDuca

For Alex, the only thing better than eating his mom’s cookies is being able to read. Hearing how Thomas Edison worked at inventions despite repeated failures gives Alex the courage and determination to persevere at school. His clever and humorous approach to snatching cookies conveys the truth that children with learning disabilities have strengths to admire and celebrate. This child embodies the visual/spatial type in the Multiple Intelligence theory. Spirited color illustrations can be enjoyed independent of text.

The all-new Fourth Edition of The Don't-give-up Kid includes new 4-color illustrations and convenient Discussion Starters for parents and professionals to use with children. The text was updated to reflect current education practices, and the hero's invention differs from the one in the earlier edition.

After 19 years in print, the early edition of this book still earns a five-star rating from Amazon readers and a “must-buy” listing by the American Library Association. Because of its sustained success, it has been greatly revised. Sporting a new set of color illustrations and a completely different invention, this story of a young inventor is sure to engage young readers while acquainting them with learning disabilities.
