Book excerpt: This story of victory carries a special message for all those who face life with learning disabilities, as well as for those who love them. Like millions of Americans, James Evans suffers from Dyslexia and also from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (also known as hyperkinesia). Though born into a nurturing family, Evans still fought a lonely battle against self-hatred, rage, and deep emotional wounds. He gives readers a clear picture of what goes on inside the minds of people who cannot sit still, who struggle to read, who stutter, and whose behavior is generally disruptive. This story reveals his journey from brokenness to a tidier life of caring for others and his discovery that the grace of God can transform our greatest weaknesses. It provides teachers, family, and friends of people with these disorders valuable insights for better understanding them.
