Publisher's Summary

If not being able to read was a disease, it would be an epidemic. Millions of Americans can’t read, but illiteracy often goes unacknowledged or unnoticed. If you are the parent or teacher of a child who struggles with reading, you know the painful way that illiteracy steals their confidence and robs them of the joy that comes from learning. William Manzanares IV - a member of the Puyallup Tribe in Washington state - wrote I Can’t Read to give the literacy conversation a much-needed jump-start. 

William, who grew up unable to read and later learned he had dyslexia, overcame these obstacles and transformed himself into a successful serial entrepreneur. In this inspirational story, William shares strategic superpowers that worked for him in the hopes it will improve literacy for those who can’t read. The book includes personal anecdotes to inspire kids everywhere - especially young Native Americans - to pursue their dreams.

Honest and Real on how to succeed with dyslexia

Just like Manzanares says in the beginning of the book, this is not a book about the scientific aspects of dyslexia. Instead it's the story of how one man went from not being able to read to being the head of companies.

I know many people could find a life line in this book. This is just what so many dyslexic children (and their mothers!!) need to hear when they feel all alone and helpless.

The truth is, that they are most certainly not alone. Dyslexia effects almost a 10th of the population. Also, they are not helpless. So many have succeeded. It's such a blessing when those who are succeeding decide to share like Manzanares has.
