Anxious Adam Braves the Test

by Leo Trinidad, Marne Ventura

Overview

Adam is dyslexic so he has to work extra hard to learn to read. He’d rather be playing sports or drawing in his sketchbook. When it’s time for the Big Test at school he’s a nervous wreck. Even when he knows the answers, he’s not a good test-taker! What if he fails? Will he have to repeat fourth grade? Will everyone think he’s not smart?
