Henry Winkler, aka The Fonz from Happy Days, is no doubt one of America’s sweethearts. Seriously, everyone loves him. And here’s yet another reason to love this icon:
This week, on a visit to The Kelly Clarkson Show, Henry Winkler made Kelly Clarkson tear up with some amazing advice.
“I was driving my daughter to school yesterday, and she’s dyslexic,” Clarkson shared. “And you have told me that you’re dyslexic as well. I find that amazing, to tell my daughter that you’ve written like 40 books and you’re dyslexic.”
She goes on to share her daughter, 8 1/2 year old River Rose, was “getting bullied at school for not being able to read like all the other kids.”
Winkler went on to share an inspiring message, not only to River, but everyone diagnosed with dyslexia, noting 1 in 5 children are diagnosed.
“She’s part of the tribe!” he said, going on to share a message directly with the second grader.
“River! How you learn has nothing to do with how brilliant you are,” he said, looking directly into the camera, as Clarkson teared up.
