This book is
written by Mike Thomas who is a dyslexic.
Here are a few extracts and my comments/questions which I hope Mike will respond to.
The second time through the 4th grade I started listening more closely to what the teacher was saying and focusing harder on the material I was studying. As a result, I did start to get a little better at reading. Sure, I was still very slow at reading, but now I tried concentrating on memorizing exactly what each word sounded like as I was looking at it; linking the sound of the word with the image of the word.
This seemed to work, but I had to literally hear every word
in my head as I read it to know its meaning.
I thought that was just the way
everybody read, hearing each word in their heads as they read.
