I would remember how to read this easy word on some days
and on other days I would forget. I felt stupid. I was teased relentlessly.”

Hello Jennifer,
Thank you for such a great book. I only read a few lines but understand completely. I have a 12 yr old dyslexic daughter named Samantha. As I read your book I would swear it isi written about her. We live in NJ and are trying to get law passed NJ Bill S2400 about reading. We are so close to getting legislation passed in NJ we would like to take it nation wide. It is time. I thought maybe you could write a few words to Sam while I wait for your book to arrive, It would really help.
Thank you again,
Beth Ravelli
