Illustrated by
Gail Piazza.
Though overlong--spanning preschool through fourth grade--this book focuses on Adam's struggle with dyslexia, implying that there is no magic bullet to fix the problem. After feeling that it was "hopeless," Adam has to learn how to read "all over again," with new ways of decoding the sounds and patterns of the letters. Pastel illustrations convey Adam's frustration, anger, and, finally, pride.
