Description

Millions of Americans can't read but illiteracy often goes unacknowledged or unnoticed. William Manzanares IV--a member of the Puyallup Tribe in Washington State--wrote I can't read to give literacy conversation a much-needed jumpstart. William, who grew up unable to read and later learned he had dyslexia, overcame these obstacles and transformed himself into a successful serial entrepreneur. In this inspirational story, William shares strategic superpowers that worked for him in the hopes it will improve literacy for those who can't read. This book includes personal anecdotes to inspire kids everywhere--especially young Native Americans--to pursue their dreams. -- From cover
