I had some problem deciding who the targeted audience was for the book. The opening text, along with a picture, narrated the story of a young girl who always had chocolate ice cream because she couldn't read the list of choices. Apparently her Dad didn't know she had difficulty reading. The book switched person numerous times, sometimes providing a story in the third person, then addressing "you," the child reader.

      I found this approach misleading because children are not expected to diagnose their own disabilities, yet that is the age group for which the book is produced. Several sections, such as "How Dyslexics Read and Write" and "Trouble in School," also pointed to children self-identifying themselves as dyslexic. The book would have been more helpful, in my opinion, if it had acknowledged the struggle dyslexic children have and outlined the events that occur both before, and after, diagnosis.

      Despite the fact that the book did present some relevant information, I didn't find the format particularly appealing for the intended age group.

Not Recommended.
