Spellbound Synopsis

When Phil Hanley entered school, he realised something that would forever set him apart from his peers: he couldn't read. His teachers were ill-equipped to assist him. His school system lacked the proper resources. Phil slipped through the school's cracks, year by year falling farther and farther behind his friends, only passing to each next year because of his mother's interventions. Finally he was diagnosed with dyslexia, a learning disability that would shape the rest of his life. In this book, Phil Hanley shares his experience living with extreme dyslexia.
