The reading level is too low for my high school students, but my 9 year old enjoyed it.

Very good book for elementary children to understand Dyslexia and what these readers must go through. I think any book that shines the light and brings awareness is a splendid idea. Awareness creates change and a better world for all.

Thank you NetGalley for the advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review

I will not be reviewing this book because the files are incompatible with my computer and phone.

If you're looking for a book that explains dyslexia to your classroom or children, this isn't it. Instead the author highlights how kids with dyslexia are "normal" kids looking for something they can do well. Written in rhyme and illustrated in black-and-white, this book has the tone of a picture book for older readers. Its rhythm and picture clues help struggling readers decode new words and find the natural cadence of speech which can enhance their fluency. I feel like this book (and its techniques) could be used in a chapter book that would to help push struggling readers to the next level. Overall, I would recommend this book.

I used this book for a book study in my 4th grade Dyslexia class.  The students LOVED it.  It goes right along with our theme of this year: developing a growth mindset.  The main idea of the book is not that the main character found that he was good at a sport.  It was that he learned that if you practice something over and over again, you develop SKILLS.  This book was a hit that I will use year after year!

I thought this was a great story as it was told through the eyes of a child with dyslexia. Even though it is fiction, and he has a challenge to overcome in life, he finds a way to be optimistic in life, and finds something that he really enjoys, and is good at. I loved the fun illustrations that went along with the story, and even noticed in one of them another of the author's books, "Bonyo Bonyo." I think this book will be great in school libraries and classrooms, as well as at homes with dyslexic children.
