A personal account from 1ane about her son

My son has always been a slow learner and reader. He came home one day Irom school and told me how
all the kids in his class had teased him because when the teacher made him read a passage Irom a book he
was very slow and made a lot oI mistakes. My heart broke seeing my child so upset. I sit down with him
every night and we go through sentences in his Iavourite books. The teacher then asked him to read at an
assembly. I was apprehensive and was aIraid oI what would happen iI he stumbled. When his time came
to read he got up and read every word. slowly but perIectly. The audience clapped and cheered and tears
well in my eyes.
