Ally não gosta da escola. Quando ela tenta ler ou escrever, as palavras parecem dançar e ela simplesmente não consegue. Sua professora não a entende e as garotas malvadas tiram sarro dela. Quando sua professora sai de licença maternidade, o mundo de Ally muda e é por causa do Sr. Daniels. Ele não é como os outros. Na verdade, ele não é como ninguém que Ally já conheceu.

TEACHING
It is believed that all of these famous people had dyslexia.
Today we will be learning about influential people.
The three main characters in the story all have their own unique identity. Ally struggles with her learning disability and does not want it to become the only thing that people know her for. Keisha is one of the only African American kids in the class, and Albert is brainy and considered weird by the mean kids.
Ally acted out and constantly got into trouble until Mr. Daniels arrived and showed her that he cares and believes in her. She wanted to make him proud and truly respected him. Mr. Daniels saw Ally for who she was and gave her the confidence to succeed in life, and taught her that people learn in many different ways.
