Seeing Through Different Eyes: Ally's World of Dancing Letters
Imagine letters that dance across the page like mischievous black beetles, refusing to stay put long enough to form words. This is sixth-grader Ally Nickerson's reality. She's attended seven schools in seven years due to her father's military career, and at each one, she's perfected the art of hiding a painful secret: she can't read. Not because she doesn't want to, but because her undiagnosed dyslexia transforms text into an incomprehensible jumble. When asked to read aloud, panic sets in-her mind blanks, palms sweat, and shame washes over her. Years of being called "slow" and "dumb" have convinced Ally she's broken beyond repair. Yet beneath this struggle lies a brilliant mind that works in vivid images rather than words. Ally excels at spatial reasoning and has a remarkable memory for things she hears. She keeps a "Sketchbook of Impossible Things" filled with fantastical drawings that reveal her rich inner world. But in a school system that prizes reading above all else, Ally's unique gifts remain invisible-even to herself. "Everyone thinks if you don't learn the way they teach, then you can't learn," she reflects bitterly. The isolation is crushing; she keeps her difficulties secret from everyone, including her hardworking mother and mechanically gifted brother Travis. Some secrets feel too big to tell.
