That sounds pretty cool. Do you have to pay for access?

It's free to access that website.

I would recommend this book:

Learning Disabilities, A to Z : A Parent's Complete Guide to Learning Disabilities from Preschool to Adulthood by Corinne Smith & Lisa Strick

Here is a link to it on half.com

I own this book and it is very comprehensive and does NOT speak over the heads of parents. It also gives good advice about how to work with the schools & advocate for your child.

It does not good into too much on every disorder, but enough and is pretty inclusive of all learning disorders. I think this would be a very good starting point as they are just begining to do testing.
