Synopsis "Before I Could Read"

For most of his life, Kevin Patrick Wallace felt like a "square peg" being hammered into a round hole. Labeled as "stupid" or "broken" by a rigid school system that failed to understand his dyslexia, he navigated a childhood of confusion, fear, and survival. Wallace didn't learn to read until he was twenty-eight years old.Before I Could Read is the extraordinary story of a journey from the noisy factory floors of Miller Brewing to the elite halls of Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine. This is a story of dyslexia and determination: Survival: Overcoming childhood trauma and the weight of being "different" in a world that demands conformity.Resilience: The grueling process of teaching himself to read as an adult while working full-time and raising a family.Becoming: Transitioning from a factory worker to a board-certified veterinary specialist, and ultimately, a steward of the land.Today, Dr. Wallace is a veterinarian, a farmer, and a builder who has transformed his life into a Mindful Living Sanctuary. This book is a testament to the fact that being different was never a deficit-it was simply a different rhythm.Written for the child in the back row who can't make the letters stay still and the adult who still flinches when asked to read aloud, this memoir is proof that even the most unlikely stories deserve to be told.
