My name is brain Brian

Hello i have been reading this book called my name is brain Brian

in this book Brian finds out that he has a disease called dyslexia. what dyslexia is,is a learning disability that is most common for happening during reading or writing what doctors have seen is that the people with dyslexia say that "the letters are dancing" my dancing they mean the letters are floating around and they cant read what the word actually says all they see is the letters dancing and they can't make a word out of it.

well any way lets get back to the book!



Brian and his friends are sitting in there secret hide out the day before summer break is over. they all absolutely HATE school but this year Brian wants to try to do his best that he can.

there is one little problem though it is that he doesn't want his friends to think he is a nerd so he doesn't tell them.

Brian and his friends decide that they will put money in a pot each week and they will earn money from the part for each joke they make.so no one knows that Brian has dyslexia so what happens is Brian is spelling his name up on the board when he accidentally spells brain. so that is because the letters are "dancing" in his head. he doesn't realize so he gets confused when everyone is laughing and then he looks and sees what he has done wrong.he didn't mean to that but he just earned some points! so he is excited about that but he was sorta confused about why he wrote that on the board when he didn't even mean to??????????? later this week his teacher ask him if he could have his parents come in to talk about something. he gets worried but then it ends up being about a disability that the teacher thinks Brian might have. his parents agree to get him a tutor and get tested so they know he is properly diagnosed and they have not just made a mistake. they find out that Brian is dyslexic and Brian goes to a tutor every day after school and he is okay with that but he just has to hide it from his friends because again he is afraid they might think he is a nerd or a braniac or something like that when really all Brian is trying to do is to get some help so he doesn't fall anymore behind.then Brian is told that he has to do a project on Canada geese with his enemy Isabella! while he is recording sound on the top of the hideout he sees two of his friends from the club with two other people and it is a rule that you cant go with any other people in less everyone in the hideout agreed. and obviously they all didn't wow i cant believe this is what Brian was thinking.after all the rules we agreed on together they are just breaking the rules?i can't believe them would they really do that? wow i know i never would!!that as you can probably see it shocked Brian a lot.poor Brian he was just trying to keep his dyslexia and wanting to do better in school private.after that Brian didn't think that he trusted those 2 guys with the clubs pot money???????????????
I'm going to leave you hanging. so get the book it is really good it was for a research project but turned out to be one of my favorites.

thank you for reading
