Reading for pleasure is for everyone. Your local public library is a great resource for children and young people with dyslexia. Here is some of what they can access:
- Books from dyslexia specialist Barrington Stoke for a range of ages
- Story CDs. Your child may enjoy just listening to a story.
- eAudiobooks and ‘Read-Along’ eBooks if your child would like to follow the words on the pages as they listen.
- Books for adults about dyslexia and other reading difficulties.
- User friendly computer software in all libraries (Supernova) which enables users to change font size and colour.
- ProDigi and Eye Pal Solo reading aids available in Bexhill, Hastings and Eastbourne. These machines are for those who have difficulty with normal print. They have a text to speech function as well as tools to enlarge print and change font colour.
