Their stories, along with expert commentary, illustrate the likely causes of the disability and the most scientifically sound strategies for intervention. " (NFB Website).
"We used this DVD to prepare for a series of workshops/awareness sessions on Dyslexia. We plan to either buy it for our collection or borrow it from the Resource Centre to use it during the workshops." – March 2010 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
"This is a great video on Dyslexia. My tutors and I watched it together." – January 2010 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
"Good overview of dyslexia from a personal perspective." – January 2009 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
"This is a good film for those who would like to understand what people with dyslexia face. It helped me to understand that there is not one solution for everyone, but that each person can learn to read with the right approach for them. It would be useful for both families with children with dyslexia, as well as adults with dyslexia. The interactive Web site has great printed material, as well as audio of people discussin some of the controversial issues." – July 2008 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
