Book Review: 'The Stroke Recovery Activity Workbook' by Activated Minds Press

✰✰✰½ Recovering from a stroke can be challenging physically, emotionally, and intellectually. With over 100 activities, this workbook aims to help those who have suffered a traumatic brain injury and want to regain their intellectual powers through brain games. Starting with easy activities and puzzles, the workbook progresses to medium and then challenging levels. Filled with activities including word searches, mazes, Sudoku, coloring, tracing, fill-ins, crosswords, matching, and more, these activities will keep one busy over time, while empowering the survivor to complete these games at their own pace.

The Bottom Line: Recommended for survivors of stroke, aphasia, and other traumatic brain injuries. This activity workbook starts out easy, so readers will not be overwhelmed. However, the more challenging activities might not be suitable for survivors of more severe brain injury. Thus, some readers may complete the entire book, while others may only want to challenge themselves to easier activities and games. The Large Type format is definitely helpful too.
