.. What was this under her hands which was square and made of iron and which her finger found a hole in? It was the lock of the door which had been closed ten years and she put her hand in her pocket, drew out the key and found it fitted the keyhole. She put the key in and turned it. It took two hands to turn it, but it did turn. And then she took a long breath and looked behind her up the long walk to see if anyone was coming. No one was coming. No one ever did it seemed, and she took another long breath, because she could not help it, and she held back the swinging curtain of ivy and pushed back the door that opened slowly - slowly. Then she slipped through it, and shut it behind her, and stood with her back against it, looking about her and breathing quite fast with excitement, and wonder, and delight. She was standing inside the secret garden. - From author Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden (1911)

The charming story of 'the Secret Garden' is a tale of transformation - as much as the ability to read can fundamentally transform a person's life. Gaining fluency and enjoyment of reading can be like establishing a beautiful garden in your backyard. When working with dyslexic students or anyone who struggles with literacy, accurate focus and the mastery of words are our tools to master reading. Abstract words that visual learners find hard to picture get planted like seeds. It is then up to the apprentice gardener to continue planting, weeding and pruning once all the knowledge has been passed on. The daily exercises and reading this book are watering the new garden to full maturity and bloom. No wonder 'the Secret Garden' by Frances Hodgson Burnett seems like a perfect choice to create the road map to our own stunning garden of knowledge. The new edition accompanies the Literacy Program of The One Year School, an online school to correcting dyslexia from home.
