Description

For children with dyslexia, learning can feel frustrating — and confidence can fade fast.

Benji knows this feeling well.

But with his teacher's help, Benji discovers something powerful: his mind works differently — and that difference sparks big ideas, creative problem-solving, and the ability to see solutions others often miss. 

Created to uplift young children when dyslexia challenges their confidence, this story helps them re-frame how they see themselves and view dyslexia in a positive light.

Printed in a dyslexia-friendly font. Great for classrooms, bedtime, and days when dyslexia feels extra tough.

I came across this book mear hours after having to pull half my hair out getting my 7 year old to read a few pages. I wish I would have read this book first.
What's interesting is the examples in this book match exactly what happens with her. She will read a word like "chuck" then immediately forget the word and take 2 minutes sounding it out the next time she sees it. Or writing the letter p correctly then writing it on a different line as a 9.
I like that the font used in the book has parts of each letter weighted- which I have not seen on other books.
This is a great tool for parents and kids as 1/5 in have some form of dyslexia. I cant wait to see what kind of super powers she has like the boy the book!
Thank you Simon & Schuster and Nat Gibons for allowing me to review this ARC.
