In Waterstones with my boys. Oldest adores reading but younger son is very dyslexic and hates the sight of books normally. Well he had his head buried in a minecraft book trying so hard to read it and then told me leave him alone.... Think a wee break through is happening , so fingers crossed. |

Much as Minecraft annoys me they do have to write in it too. There are loads of Minecraft books.
Once he gets the bug he'll see books and reading as a positive thing.
I spend a lot of time choosing books for the kids. Sometimes it's about getting the timing right for a certain book. |

Try comic / picture books as they are less frustrating for dyslexic kids. There are books available now aimed specifically at boys who don't/ won't read. Sure if you google you will find them. Yes...always feed his interests, that is what will inspire him. One of my sons is dyslexic. It was a nightmare getting him to read. |
