The future needs Dyslexic Thinking!

British social entrepreneur, founder and CEO of charity Made By Dyslexia, Kate Griggs has been shifting the narrative on dyslexia and educating people on its strengths since 2004. Having been surrounded by an extraordinary 'smorgasbord of Dyslexic Thinking' her whole life, Griggs knows the superpower of dyslexia all too well.

With a forward from Sir Richard Branson, This is Dyslexia covers everything you need to understand, value and support Dyslexic Thinking. From offering practical advice on how to support the dyslexics in your life to breaking down the 6 Dyslexic Thinking skills in adults, Griggs shares her knowledge in an easily digestible guide.

This is Dyslexia redefines and reshapes what it means to be dyslexic. It explores how it has shaped our past and how harnessing its powers and strengths is vital to our future.

I was very pleased to find MadeByDyslexia widely available online. This is the structured version. It's easy to listen to casually & without any shocking emotional or negative opinions often found with labels which are generally misunderstood.
It comes with a helpful PDF for further learning. I'd recommend to anyone working with children or caring for them. It will open your mind whether or not you are dyslexic or have a dyslexic child.
Of course there is diversity but some clear indicators in school could save a child from growing up with chronic stress, low self esteem and confusion. There's a better approach than "working harder, longer & with a lot of stress", here it is spelled out creatively.

Quick inspiring overview of Dyslexic strengths
