Negative Positive
Title: Transformational
Review: I first read this book a couple of years ago when my son started struggling in school. It provided a reference to see why he was struggling, and has been a guide in bringing him up to grade level reading. I consider this to be one of the most important books in my son's ability to grow mentally. Shaywitz covers every aspect of dyslexia from the hurt and confusion a dyslexic faces to the causes of dyslexia to how to teach a dyslexic. She states that 20% of americans are dyslexic, so it seems that this book should be standard reference to parents and educators. Shaywitz takes a subject that is surrounded by confusion and makes it understandable and treatable.
