an interesting insider view of how one becomes dyslexic and how the brain of a dyslexic thinks. the author works with other dyslexics in retraining their brains to control the disorientation. the author gives a thorough walk-through of the steps he takes when working with dyslexics. He gives further recommended references and further reading suggestions. (

A book for people with dyslexia, parents and professionals. Sets out step-by-step techniques which will help reading.

When I read it, I kept feeling like Davis was trying to sell me something. His Davis Dyslexia Correction® method. Yep, he’s trademarked it. Got himself a whole bunch of counseling centers, all slapped with his name all over them.
