Description

"The stories told in this book show how foolish we are if we underestimate this creative and powerful dyslexic generation"

When you're dyslexic, life at school can feel like a daily grind. In this book, around 40 dyslexic young people from across the globe, who have been where you are now, explain how they've made life beyond the school gates work for them. This is a book to reassure you and open up possibilities for the years ahead.

Funny, fascinating, and brimming with the ups and downs of adult life, each interview explores strategies that have helped deal with challenges they've faced. They offer top tips for harnessing your strengths and working out the path that's right for you. Most of all they show that no matter how difficult life can feel now, there truly are choices when you leave high school that can take you to a future you might never have dreamed of.

Packed with personal stories, illustrations from young dyslexic illustrators, and helpful insights from bestselling dyslexia author, Margaret Rooke, you'll have everything you need to prepare for the journey ahead.
