The Way They Learn by Cynthia Ulrich Tobias
This, non astrology, book offers valuable insight into understanding the different ways our children learn and how we can teach them to their strengths. And I believe this can also be seen in the chart, particularly through looking at Mercury. This book gives actual breakdowns and questionnaires for discovering your child's learning style. Then you can look to validate and support that through their insight as well as astrology knowledge.
