I'm curious if anyone has any suggestions to help Wolf out with this. He is very able to read end of 2nd to beginning 3rd books, but he doesn't have the stamina to read more than a couple of pages maybe a short chapter at a time. He also has very little stamina and/or patience (not sure which on this one) for writing. He's able to write semi-legibly perhaps mid 1st? He just turned 5...

Not wanting to push him faster than he's physically ready for, but I know that it annoys him and was just curious what I could tell him.

That is very similiar to us Wyldkat except this summer DS7 (just turned 7) could all of a sudden read a lot more. Again only after lots of physical activity so he could sit still to read. The writing is still not there (stamina-wise) but I am hoping to build up to longer durations.
