Overwhelmed by the beautiful comments I have received, I want to thank you for getting my message out – that children like me need to be taught to read and write.
Please continue to share my petition and make a difference to children still locked in and not being taught.

It’s a pleasure and an honour, Jonathan. They should have you as children’s poet laureate!

Hi Jonathan,
What an amazing awe inspiring individual you are! Very articulate (which I was as articulate!) your story is one of hope and it would be in humane if your petition wasn’t actioned.
Please also pass on my utter admiration for the love and persistence your parents have shown.
Take Care and Good Luck.
Most of all, don’t stop talking and writing!

Dear Jonathan, after your petition popped up in my inbox I found your blog and read your inspiring words (I did sign your petition first!). I especially loved Song of Voice, and your story about Jesus’ garden is wonderful. I felt like I was really there up in that tree, your writing was so vivid. I love words and I also write poetry. By sharing your story you made realise anew how Every. Single. Word. Is. Precious. Thankyou for writing your blog – I realise it must take much time and effort. Very best wishes for the petition which I will share. I hope you will write more poetry.

You’re doing so well with your letter board Jonathan, I was wondering if you had been offered the chance to try an Eye Gaze?
