"Hanging by a Twig is one of the best books of its kind that I have read (and I have read quite a few!). What distinguishes this volume is the authors' breadth of knowledge and the depth of their compassion. The reader gets not only excellent information but also sensitive treatment of the emotional issues that so dog and complicate the world of learning problems and ADD. I will treasure this book and recommend it to everyone interested in the topic."
 

—Edward M. Hallowell, M.D.
Psychotherapist and author of Driven to Distraction

"Hanging by a Twig is both educational and instructive. The cases are well-selected and the discussion by Carol Wren and Jay Einhorn is as rich as their clients' stories and quotes. There is no question that the authors' comprehensive view of adults with learning disabilities will guide the reader with insights and information that can make a difference. Their holistic approach is not only consistent with the adult stage of development, but it is also necessary to aid adults with learning disabilities to help and to advocate for themselves as they approach the challenges of both adulthood and everyday life."
 

—Paul J. Gerber, Ph.D. 
Professor of Education, Virginia Commonwealth University

"Hanging by a Twig is a thorough, readable book that offers profoundly meaningful, practically illustrated insights into the dynamics of learning disabilities as they uniquely impact the process of psychotherapy. I found the concepts and case presentations to be very helpful, with important implications for anyone practicing psychotherapy."
