Alison Keeley, of The Book Blog, has compiled a list of alphabet books for all ages. The books range from ages 3 to 9. It includes the bright and colorful “Cleo’s Alphabet” and the Victorian style of “AlphaBeasts”. The list also features the more macabre side of children’s literature with the selections of “The Alphabet Theatre Proudly Presents the Z Was Zapped” and “The Gashleycrumb Tinies”.

There is a wide selection of book titles to help dyslexic children learn the alphabet with most titles having a suggested age range that is very helpful.

Alison Keely is a writer for The Book Blog, a subsite of Dyslexia Action. She has an interest in children’s literature and runs the Dyslexia Action Learning Centres in the south of England. Dyslexia Action helps children with dyslexia overcome the challenges they face in learning and helps to build the children’s self esteem.

Is your child struggling in school?

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
