Summary: How Dyslexic Benny Became A Star
Comment: Benny's story changed my son's life. It's the first book he ever read twice. Unfortunately, I was too much like Benny's father. Seeing myself protrayed changed my attitude. Now I know why it's important to support my son instead of badgering him. There is a strong message for every member of the dyslexic family. Children, parents, sibilings, and teachers.
Rating: 2
Summary: The subject is appealing but the plot poorly executed.
Comment: Although the reader can sympathize with Benny's learning disability, the other characters are disappointing and unrealistic. The father too cruel, the mother too weak, the sister too mean and his teachers oblivious. The fact that they haven't understood that he has a learning disability until fifth grade is appaling. Then, suddenly, the coach intervenes and everyone's personality changes overnight. Most of all, there is too much dialog between the adults in the story and not enough action centered around Benny.
Rating: 5
Summary: One of the BEST stories of hope for children with dyslexia!
Comment: This story should be shared with parents, teachers and especially children who have dyslexia. I have read this story to my Language Training students who have been inspired by this book.
