Books were my salvation as a kid. Therefore, I found it hard and sad my supergirl struggled so much reading. I can’t imagine how hard it must be. What I do know is what a huge impact it has on her daily school life and results, and how important it is to get the right diagnoses and help. Did you know there could be more going on when your kid is struggling with reading, besides ‘just’ dyslexia? My guest Hilary Laxson knows all about the struggles. And took action. In this episode we talk about her and her daughter’s journey.
