Hello ..
I am Hamdan
I may look like a normal child
but, I am special in a way.

1
It all started when my teacher
noticed that I struggled at
reading and writing .

2
Hello ..
After undergoing special tests,
I was diagnosed with
( Dyslexia ).

3
Hello ..
Dyslexia affects my brain’s
ability to process linguistic,
graphic symbols which results
in reading difficulties and, it
doesn't affect my intelligence.

4
Hello ..
What is interesting! is
that Dyslexia allows me
to bring letters to life.

5
Hello ..
The letters are lively and are
never tired, they are active and
curious, they dig in here,
jump on there and that
frustrates me because they get
on my nerves.
6
Hello ..
Their constant movement
makes it hard for me to
connect them to each other
and view them in their
original form.

7
Hello ..
Either at
SCHOOL,
8
Hello ..
STREETS,

9
Hello ..
or
GROCERIES &
SHOPS.

10
Hello ..
Taming these annoying letters
and pushing them back in
place is easy because I got
my magical tool.

11
Hello ..
By using the
Reading Focus Card,
I can control and restrict
their movements.
12
Hello ..
At first I couldn’t handle
Dyslexia and I was not able to
deal with it but, with the help of
my specialist I was able to
challenge it and live in peace
with it.
13
What is Dyslexia ?
Dyslexia is a lifelong, brain-based issue that makes it
difficult for people to read. The brain processes written
material differently. This makes it hard to recognize, spell,
and decode words.
