Oh, I love a Kindle!

Amazon Kindle

An Amazon Kindle or any e-reader can be a powerful device getting you to read more books. As lovely as traditional books are to physically hold and smell, the text contrast the page and the size can be problematic when you have dyslexia. Not only does a Kindle allow you to download dyslexic friendly fonts (see hack “Fancy Fonts” ), it also lets you customise the font type, size, layout, and contrast to your desire, making the perfect environment leaving you free to enjoy the novel you have been putting off.
