Much of the current literature on dyslexia focuses on literacy and study, and in some ways 'misses the point' about the condition - that it has an affect on your whole life and your personality. This book is enlightening for readers who have dyslexia, as well as their teachers/tutors and families.
Much of the current literature on dyslexia focuses on literacy and study, and in some ways `misses the point’ – that it affects your whole life and your personality.
This book helps readers to understand how dyslexics feel and how they develop coping strategies; it will be enlightening for dyslexic people themselves, their parents and teachers/tutors. It is written in a non-academic style and will immediately strike a chord with readers who have experience (first or second hand) of this condition. It contains anecdotes and stories of personal experiences. Many dyslexic people also have dyspraxia and/or ADD, and the book considers the additional challenges presented by these overlapping conditions.
