Amanda’s daughter went from dreading reading to thriving—see how your child can, too!
April, 2025
Watching your child struggle with reading is heartbreaking. You know they’re bright, creative, and full of potential—but something keeps getting in the way. Maybe they’ve started to doubt themselves, or you see the frustration growing every time they open a book. You just want them to feel confident and capable.
Amanda knows that feeling all too well.
Her third grader was on an IEP, had extra support in and out of school, and even attended after-school programs. But reading still wasn’t clicking—and worse, her daughter had started to dread it.
Then, they found Minnesota Learning Solutions.
✨ “This program and Miss Tracy were incredible! My third grader improved six reading levels in just two months, and her teachers and I had tears in our eyes at her next conference. Even more importantly, her confidence soared, and she is enjoying reading again! If phonics isn’t working for your child, I highly recommend Tracy and this program!” – Amanda
Her story isn’t unique—we see this kind of transformation all the time. Your child can become the confident reader you know they’re meant to be. Sometimes, they just need a different approach that works with their brain, not against it.
If you’re ready to explore what’s possible, let’s talk.
Warmly,
Tracy

I first came across this book during my very first year of teaching 3rd grade—many years ago now—and it quickly became one of my favorites to share with students. At the time, I had no idea just how close to home it would eventually hit. Years later, I became a parent to a child who struggles with dyslexia, and this story took on an even deeper meaning.
Thank You, Mr. Falker is a powerful, heartfelt book based on the author’s own journey with dyslexia. It tells the story of a young girl named Trisha, who loves to draw but struggles to read—until a teacher sees her potential and helps her unlock the tools she needs to succeed. It’s a beautiful reminder of the impact a caring adult can have and the importance of understanding different learning styles.
Whether you’re a parent, educator, or simply someone who loves a good story, this book is a gem. It’s perfect for sparking conversations about perseverance, empathy, and the unique strengths each child brings to the table.
