Good Morning

It is really difficult to say what will work and what will not in the area
of LD. LD comes in all shapes and sizes which anyone who has worked with
kids with LD can tell you. If you use Windows as an operating system, there
is a very nice free program that may help you. It is called ReadPlease.

It reads text or Web documents and the text is highlighted as it is read.
You can enlarge the text and change the voice to a number of different
settings. I have worked with ReadPlease for quite some time and it is one
of those free things that actually is worth downloading.

You can get it from http://www.download.com

Here is the very nasty direct URL.

http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-10106-100-911833.html?tag=st.dl.10001_103_1.lst.td

If you would like to write me for more information about the ins and outs
of ReadPlease, please feel free to do so.

Dick
