In addition, developing reading comprehension amongst the third grade students who have reading difficulties. Therefore this study started by listing the most significant reading difficulties that the students face, and listing the most prominent reading comprehension skills (a literal direct level) appropriate for them. After adjusting the procedures of the study, 25 students were chosen to experience the e-reading pen.  They have been trained to use it correctly in order to assure its efficiency. After a statistical treatment using the t-test, the study has shown that the electronic pen has no effect what so ever on the 25 students in treating some of the vocalized reading difficulties or improving their reading comprehension skills. In conclusion, the study shared some recommendations and future suggestions.
