It is a wealth of information. I learned so much from this book, and I recommend it to anyone wishing to learn about Dyslexia. Review: A Must Read for Parents, Educators and Rdg Teachers! - This was an amazing book. There IS hope if you or someone you know is dyslexic! This is an encouraging book that empowers you to take charge and help your child,student, yourself... become a stronger reader! Dispells many myths about dyslexia and what it is. Focuses on strategies and curriculum based on strong research. Describes how the brain works when it comes to language... and how brain scans have shown "improvement" in areas of the brain (left lobes) that have been activated after effective reading strategies and programs have been implemented. It is filled with lots and lots of specific, practical ideas, resources and information about how readers learn to read and how we can help children (and adults) who have difficulty reading. Although the title refers to dyslexia, it is a great book if you want to understand how the reading process works and what you can do as a parent/teacher/caregiver to help your child overcome dyslexia,to solidify your child's reading skills if they don't have dyslexia, or to get them off to a great start reading in the early years. There are also specific descriptions of which signs to look for EARLY ON to detect any reading difficulties or dyslexia and address them then. I used many of the ideas in the text with my own daughter who is learning to read... and also with a few students I've worked with who struggle with reading. I was surprised to find that many of the descriptions in the book, of the kinds of errors that children with reading difficulties or dyslexia make, exactly described some of the things I was seeing with the children I worked with. This is a book I borrowed from the library first, then knew, without a doubt, I had to buy and have for a reference again and again! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #6,717 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2 in Teaching Students with Learning Disabilities #13 in Parenting Books on Children with Disabilities #21 in Reading & Phonics Teaching Materials | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 2,332 Reviews | ## Images ![Overcoming Dyslexia (2020 Edition): Second Edition, Completely Revised and Updated - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81a5NioGerL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic book to ensure you are knowledgeable about Dyslexia *by C***E on May 6, 2026* I read this book to earn my Dyslexia endorsement.

My husband and I both listened to the book in our automobiles within months of hearing our daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia. I quickly purchased the hard copy, and completely highlighted important points, and took notes! notes! notes!!! I refer to these notes and this book almost every week to make sure I stay on target for her reading and writing education. One thing that I refer to all of the time is about 15 techniques/exercises this book mentions to use. Our school already has used this book as the foundation of it's special reading program for a number of years. It is an award-winning school. As suggested in this book, we had our daughter tutored last summer 3 times a week by an experienced tutor who uses a dyslexia-approved curriculum listed in this book. We continued to follow this book's recommendations all year. Results will absolutely vary, but my daughter has gone from the bottom 5% in reading at her grade level (in other words, she couldn't read) to the 60th percentile of her grade level (she can now read signs, menus, directions, books). She still has a way to go, but she can now read and write! This is the foundational book to help! A friend of mine also used the book's suggestions without hiring a tutor, (she tutored him herself as best she could) but switched her son to a school that used dyslexia-approved curriculum, with an experienced teacher (as suggested by this book) and her son's reading jumped two grade levels, from a pre-1st grade level to entry third grade level in one year. ## Frequently Bought Together - Overcoming Dyslexia (2020 Edition): Second Edition, Completely Revised and Updated - Multisensory Teaching of Basic Language Skills - Multisensory Teaching of Basic Language Skills Activity Book --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/1213061-overcoming-dyslexia-2020-edition-second-edition-completely-revised-and-updated](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/1213061-overcoming-dyslexia-2020-edition-second-edition-completely-revised-and-updated) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
