About the Book

Spurred by an intrinsic interest in brain development and how the brain learns, Mrs. Mulnix has autodidactically researched and developed Reading applications that are enhanced by the natural processes of the brain. This interest continues to this thy and is being constantly updated. In 1967, I began working with a Dyslexic student. By utilizing the training I’d received, this student, after two months, began to improve by one school year per month in the program. Ultimately, when I moved away, he was up to a sixth grade reading level. He had also come out of his shell, socially, and enjoyed reading. In 38 years, of being a reading specialist, I’ve found if you discover which areas of the brain are not operating to their full potential (and address these problems) you’ll see doors opening, eyes lighting and children smiling as they learn.
