Dyssed - Paperback

by Donesa Walker (Author)

Across the country, roughly one in five people has dyslexia. In some states, fewer than one in a hundred students are ever identified. That gap isn't an accident - it's the predictable result of outdated IQ thresholds, underfunded screening, and a system built to catch one kind of struggling reader while missing all the others.

Dyssed makes the case, with hard data and harder-won clinical experience, that America's dyslexia crisis is a systems failure as much as a neurological one. Board Certified Cognitive Specialist Donesa Walker draws on three decades as a classroom teacher, district reading specialist, and cognitive training center owner to lay out exactly where the system breaks down - and the research-backed path to fixing it.
