I taught my daughter to read when she was 3. I had no parallel interest in teaching her to write, but I let her type. When she started school at four-and-a-half, she was a really fluent writer but couldn't write, apart from her name. She could, however, type quite a bit.
My son was dyslexic and was a slow reader. He eventually caught up and overcame his initial difficulties, although writing was torture for him at first. He was saved by learning fast touch-typing and as a result his writing improved enormously as well.
Both of them, now long grown up, read a lot.
