About The Story

Abdul, a bright and creative student with dyslexia, loves writing stories but feels discouraged by his frequent mistakes. Dyslexia, affecting 15–20% of the population, often leads to struggles with spelling, letter confusion, or slow reading, which can impact self-esteem. Many children with disabilities, like Abdul, feel inadequate despite their abilities. With social-emotional learning and empathetic support, they can build confidence, sense of self-worth, belonging, and reach their full potential. Children with any form of disability often underestimate their abilities due to low self-esteem. In the story The Song in Her Heart, Ringluia, who has a hearing handicap, dreams of performing the traditional Cheraw dance but doubts herself. Through her wise grandmother's encouragement and support, she learns to embrace her passion and gains the self-confidence she needs.
