Understanding Nonverbal Learning Disability

Nonverbal Learning Disability (NLD), also called NVLD, is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by difficulties in motor coordination, visual-spatial skills, and understanding nonverbal cues. Children with NLD may struggle with math, spatial reasoning, and interpreting facial expressions or body language, which can impact social interactions and academic performance. Early recognition and intervention are crucial for preventing secondary challenges and supporting the child’s overall development. This book is designed specifically for parents, providing clear explanations of the condition, guidance on diagnosis, and practical strategies to support children with NLD at home, school, and in social environments.
