Hi Robert,
There are number of interesting apps available for android use. Here is a link from lifehack that compares 10 different apps. Among these 10, Cool Reader offers a free text-to-speech component which the others do not. It might be worth checking out.

Hello all,

I have a student with Dyslexia who needs to be able to read books on his Android phone. He needs TTS for sure and would like to have highlighting if possible. Do you have any recommendations for this?

Thanks.
