Tall Tales with Mr. K (a DyslexiAssist Reader) Kathy Sattem Rygg

The third-graders at Coyote Run Elementary thought the teacher's lounge is where teachers eat candy out of vending machines, watch TV and get to play video games. They didn't expect it to be a tropical island where they are kidnapped by pirates, a circus where they learn the flying trapeze, or a crime scene where they solve a jewelry heist. Each chapter of this young middle-grade fantasy tells the story of a different student's adventure in the teacher's lounge accompanied by their mysterious new teacher, Mr. K. Only one student, Sam, decides to boldly go into the teacher's lounge by himself where he discovers something completely different yet.

The DyslexiAssist font and layout make it easier for children's eyes and brain to see the individual letters of each word by making each letter look substantially different from each other, as well as by adding more spacing between letters, between words and between sentences.
