THIS is Dyslexia

The definitive guide to the untapped power of dyslexic thinking and its vital role in our future

What is Dyslexic Thinking? And why is it responsible for some of the most brilliant breakthroughs in history – from the lightbulb to the iPhone? A new book called ‘THIS is Dyslexia’, written by Kate Griggs, social entrepreneur and founder of global charity, Made By Dyslexia, covers everything you need to understand, value and support Dyslexic Thinking – at home, in the classroom or at work.

Written for older children and adults, it explains how dyslexic minds process information differently and explores the unique set of skills that make them experts at problem solving, empathy and communication.

As a leading voice in global dyslexia advocacy, Kate has been shifting the narrative on dyslexia since 2005, championing a new school of thought which encourages people to embrace its incredible strengths.

‘THIS is Dyslexia’ is filled with advice from well-known dyslexics, stories from Kate’s own experience and techniques to overcome challenges. The inspiring book features a forward from Sir Richard Branson, and explores how dyslexia has shaped our past and how harnessing its powers and strengths is vital to our future.

It’s not only a brilliant guide for people with dyslexia, it also helps parents, employers and educators truly understand dyslexia and Dyslexic Thinking.

‘THIS is Dyslexia’, BY KATE GRIGGS, is out now, published by Penguin Random House.
