I teach a study skills class and we bought copies of your book for the class. The kids are really enjoying your book, so much that they asked to keep their copies and I was given permission to let them keep the books. Looks like I will be ordering more of them for next year.

Every High School guidance couselor should have a copy of your book.

I like the Survival Guide as it is, easy to read and provides a great deal of practical information for college students.

Students with learning disabilities need to hear the voice of Dave Carson, who tells his story, reveals his insights and shares his strategies about living with his own L.D. Put Dave's book on the "must read" list for students, parents and professionals who are involved in transition.

I have not seen any book like it before. It is an enormously helpful blueprint as to how students can get through college.

Your book is brilliant! You are a great writer! Really. I am going to show it to several other teachers and recommend that the little library at Bidwell buy a copy. Your check is in the mail.

"Survival Guide for College-Bound L.D. Students" makes a wonderful tool for anyone involved with the transition of a student with a disability into higher education - students, parents, secondary and post-secondary professionals alike. Dave Carson is a wonderful example of how to live with an LD and to make it a positive part of life.

"An excellent resource for the student with a learning disability (or parent) who is concerned about transitioning to college. This survival guide is engaging and to-the-point; it is both practical and personal. David draws the reader's interest by sharing many of his own personal experiences and insights in having survived college with a learning disability."

Dave,
I just read the stories in your book and they are truly an inspiration. I think they have an important message for everyone, not just LD students.

From a parent: "I wish I had David Carson's book when I entered college and I don't have a learning disability."

From a parent: "I learned strategies for my son to use next year when he is a freshman at college. David Carson knows what he is talking about. We bought David's book and we are going to read it together to plan what to do to increase his chances for success at college."

From a parent/wife: "My husband hates seminars. He came with me prepared to sleep through it. We stayed with David Carson all day. My husband has a LD, but has never been tested. I am a therapist of 15 years who worked with LD students. My husband said he could listen to Dave Carson all day. He loved it and so did I."

From a student: "One thing I learned after listening to David Carson is that I am okay too. Now I need to rethink my future."

From a parent: "Dave, my son came out of your program feeling good. Thank you again."
