Fish in a Tree by Lynda Mullaly Hunt

Ally never seems to do well in school. Her new teacher, Mr. Daniels, tries to teach her to read and write, but she just can't. It turns out she has dyslexia but that won't stop her from trying. Ally confronts a bully, stands up for her best friend, is elected class president, and becomes the person she always wanted to be. Just because Ally struggles, that doesn't stop her, but makes her a stronger person.
