If you know someone who suffers from dyslexia but loves reading, they are now in luck. The Nowra Library now has a new collection of books for those who are dyslexic. This new collection is designed to make reading easier for those with the impairment. The letters are designed in a way so that each letter has focused on the letter, making reading easier.

New books for those with dyslexia are published. What are your feelings on it?

A book collection is now specifically for dyslexia.

With this new change to the font, those with dyslexia no longer have to feel that reading is out of the scope of possibility. The changes have been a success thus far. Those who have visited the new library have reported success in this new line of books. With more space between each letter, those with dyslexia can navigate the text with more ease.

People with dyslexia often swap, rotate and flip letters without noticing, as some letters are too similar to each other for them to tell apart.

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.
