The Gift of Dyslexia
Ronald Davis
“What do Cher, Leonardo da Vinci, Whoopi Goldberg, and Walt Disney all have in common? Dyslexia. Though one may think they have achieved success in spite of their disability, Ronald D. Davis, author of The Gift of Dyslexia, says it’s because of it…Davis’s procedure enjoys a 97 percent success rate. Once students remove obstacles to learning, they are free to capitalise on the innate gifts of dyslexia can bring.” -New Woman
Like other dyslexics, Ronald D. Davis was gifted with an unusual talent for creativity and imagination…yet, he grew up wondering5 why he couldn’t function right in school, where teachers labelled him “retarded.” After numerous failures and setbacks, he eventually became an engineer, a businessman, and sculptor – and at the age of thirty-eight, made a startling discovery that enabled him to read, cover to cover, in just a few hours.
This inspiration led to Davis’s revolutionary procedures, outlined clearly and simply in this book so that anyone – teacher, parent, therapist, or dyslexic – can use them to successfully overcome the difficulties of dyslexia.
