When most people think of the word “dyslexia,” they think of someone who writes letters backward, said Bainbridge Island mom Charlotte Rovelstad.

“Typically, as a parent, you realize your child is not progressing as expected in reading, writing or math, and that’s your entryway into dyslexia,” she said.

That was the case for her when her bright child came home from school discouraged and falling behind.

Rovelstad embarked on a mission to educate herself about dyslexia and in so doing came upon the work of Dr. Brock Eide, and Dr. Fernette Eide.

The Seattle-based doctors, authors of “The Dyslexic Advantage” and “The Mislabeled Child,” cite brain research that turns the common stereotype about dyslexia on its head.

Those who fall under the category of dyslexic are not slow or dumb, they say, but have unique brain structure and organization that processes information in a completely different way than the general population.
