At age 9, young Stephen Schutz was still struggling to read. What came
easily for some children required many more hours of Stephen's work, and
he was consistently toward the bottom of his class in reading. Now a PhD
in physics and a successful publisher and artist, Dr. Schutz wanted to
make sure children in his situation today have a resource that can help.
He turned to the Internet and conceived a program that would be available
online across the world to all children who are learning to read in English.
