Summary

There are a lot of children (and adults) who struggle with reading. Some are helped by their schools, some are not. 
In this short booklet, Pamela Brookes shares some of the basic information she wishes she'd had when she was first trying to figure out how to help her child learn to read.  
Teaching A Struggling Reader: One Mom's Experience with Dyslexia is filled with links to informational and product resources for parents or teachers. It is geared to people who want to educate themselves in the methods that are effective in teaching those with dyslexia. It also contains photos demonstrating basic techniques like "Tapping" (using one's fingers to aid in sounding out words) and "Making your bed" to differentiate between "b" and "d." 
This Third Edition includes new information and new links including the social and economic impacts of illiteracy. It also contains information on Early Intervention, including what parents can do if they suspect their young child may have dyslexia during the toddler and preschool years, and a section on  What if It's NOT Dyslexia. 
This is a booklet that can be read in one sitting. However, there are ample links to provide an even greater experience. The hyperlinks are active in the e-book format. 
All DOG ON A LOG Books follow a systematic, structured literacy/Orton-Gillingham based phonics sequence.
Available since: 11/07/2018.

    Connection 
    Have you ever noticed that, after listening to a podcast or an audiobook, you feel like you know the author?  
    Our ears bring information into our brains in a different way then our eyes by reading the words--or even our eyes through watching a screen.  
    I’m no aural scientist, but what I personally get with audio is a connection. A connection to the author, to the words, to the story, to the material. It sinks into your brain, I can almost feel it seeping through the nooks and crannies of my mind like water over porous volcanic rock.  
    This is what I’m after. This is the connection I love to have as a reader and this is what I strive for as an author. This is why I’ve built this course so you too can connect with your readers.  
    The rest, a booming audiobook market, smartphones around the world with one-tap access to audio, and a relatively untapped market compared to print and ebooks, is gravy.

    The bestselling chronicler of human stupidity shares tales of unruly passengers, dumb drivers, and the people who put the “loco” in locomotive . . . New York Times-bestselling author Leland Gregory presents a riotous collection of the unbelievably bizarre events and behavior that result when people strap themselves in for a ride. Gregory, who has so entertainingly highlighted humanity’s stupidity in the areas of crime, business, love, politics, and more—now turns his attention to idiots on the road, on the rails, and in the air.  From mind-boggling insurance claims (“A pedestrian hit me and went under my car”), to the cops who went after an erratic driver and found an iguana at the wheel, to the overweight woman who thought the airline purposely put a tag calling her “FAT” on her luggage (it was the airport code for Fresno), these true stories ranging from the horrifying to the hilarious will have you shaking your head at the misadventures that have occurred as people attempt to get from point A to point B.
