Dyslexia is a learning disability characterized by difficulty reading and occurs in children with normal intelligence and vision. Children with dyslexia have difficulty connecting the letters they see with the sounds of those letters. Symptoms of dyslexia may go unnoticed until the child starts school, where teachers first notice the condition, as the child struggles to read, spell, and follow instructions in class. Sometimes they confuse words with letters. Because of these problems, the child becomes fearful, frustrated and confused. Check out the original
