Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
The book is about the problems of intelligent children such as these, who struggle to learn. Dr Selikowitz has written a clear and sympathetic guide to the often controversial subject of dyslexia and other learning disorders. He deals with difficulties in traditional academic areas such as reading, spelling, and arithmetic, and tackles more subtle conditions such as clumsiness, social unease, and hyperactivity. He describes clearly what is known about these problems, concentrating
on information that is of practical relevance to parents in understanding their children's difficulties and in helping them to overcome them and improve their self-esteem. There are also suggestions for managing difficult behaviours.
This new edition is fully up-to-date, drawing on the most recent research on the disorders and their treatments. The encouraging approach and easy-to-read style will appeal to parents, as well as to the professionals who work with such children.
