Individuals with dyslexia have trouble interpreting written symbols and their meanings–that is, they face particular challenges when trying to read. Irish author Shane Casey is aware of these challenges. With them in mind, he has published a book which utilizes particular fonts, specific color schemes, and page layouts to create a book that is accessible to those readers with dyslexia.
Do you need to find books specific to the reading style of your dyslexic child?

The book, his second, contains three short stories. The stories are illustrated by artist Vincent Killowry. The focus of each story is local flora and fauna. Casey is a governmental Biodiversity Author, who worries that children are growing up unfamiliar with Irish plants and animals. He hopes teach them about their environment, and make that teaching available to any and all children, even those who might traditionally struggle with reading.
Increasingly in Ireland, children are unfamiliar with the animals and plants which their parents and grandparents grew up with; however, ‘Nature’s Hidden Adventures’ aims to buck this trend.

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.
