Rating: - A different aproach
My 12 year old daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia 3 years ago. After being in denyal I got interested by the different way of taking in your environment, seeing problems, beeing creative etc... that she does. At school they did their best but it just didn't click with her. Imagine not being self confident and hearing a remedial teacher telling you that you are handicapped.

Rating: - Awesome!
As the spouse of a dyslexic, I have read many books on dyslexia.

Rating: - Can You Read???

I am 70 years old and was not aware of dyslexia until I was 40. I failed the first grade and received very low marks in grade school and high school. In fact, my average was a D. When I read this book, I was moved to tears. It was if I was released from my own lack of self esteem. It answered questions I had about myself all my life. I highly recommend this book for anyone who have these ... Read More
