Caleb Lones, an 8-year-old Madison boy will be honored this week in Connecticut by a national nonprofit organization for his efforts to overcome a learning disability - and for kicking up his heels in karate.
Caleb's mother said he was diagnosed with dyslexia as a second-grader.
"He had experienced some trouble in school since kindergarten," she said, adding that she and her husband enrolled Caleb in karate classes about the same time. "We were trying to boost his self-esteem," she said. "We brought him to Alexander's (Martial Arts). They've really been a godsend to him."
