In 2009, some musicans in New Zealand came together on a project to raise awareness and understanding of dyslexia. They produced a song which was released to celebrate Dyslexia Action Week .
The song was written by Don McGlashan, who is a parent of two dyslexic children .The single ‘The Closer You Get, The Bigger I Look’ is available for free download from the following site :

Here are the words of the song :
I might stand out
I might be someone you’d like to meet
I might fit in
I could be anyone on the street
You better watch me
You better watch me
Chorus:
If you’re gonna judge the cover
You better read the book
Cause the closer you get
The bigger I look
And if I hit the wall
I’m gonna find my own way round
And if I fall
I’m gonna get right back off the ground
You better watch me
You better watch me
Chorus x2
Oh yeah, the bigger I look
The bigger I look
The bigger I look
