Summary: This book offers real hope for the dyslexic
Comment: In January of '99 my first grader was completely unable to read. After formal testing at a university, special education intervention, and endless hours of struggle, I sat down and studied this book. By April of '99 (3 short months) my daughter was reading at a second grade level! I have since then gone on to complete the program described in the book for other students with good success. One 9 year old girl went from a pre-primer reading level to a 2nd grade reading level in just 5 days! Furthermore, the book offers hope. While dyslexia clearly causes problems it also offers special talents. Knowing what those are enables me to encourage interests where she is naturally gifted. Albert Einstein, Alexander Grahm Bell, Thomas Edison... my daughter is in good company. Read this book!

Summary: The book that changed our lives
Comment: I first read this book four years ago when my nephew (then 9 years old) was confirmed as dyslexic. The concepts were difficult for me to grasp because I am not a picture thinker, but they made sense! After years of struggling with educators and nay-sayers, my nephew attended the Davis Dyslexia clinic where he learned first hand the methods described in Ron Davis' book. He went from a 3rd to an 8th grade reading level in only four days! His progress was astounding and his self confidence is at a level we have never seen before. My family and I will be forever grateful that we found this book. It has made a tremendous difference in our lives. Thank you, Ron Davis!

Summary: Works for adults!!
Comment: My 24 year old son just went through the program described in this book. He went from a 7th grade reading level with close to 0 comprehension to an 11th grade reading level with full comprehension in 5 days. I wasn't sure it would help him as it seemed his vision was so compromised, and his eyes jumped around so much - I was afraid his problem was largely vision, but now his eyes are rested, and nothing blurs. I am amazed and grateful. He now longer believes he's stupid. So much time was lost, in special ed and then dropping out of school altogether after 8th grade - but now at least he can pursue whatever he wants as an adult.
