Description
Mission Dyslexia
Find Your Superpower and Be Your Brilliant Self
Julie McNeill, Rossie Stone and Paul McNeill
Illustrated by Rossie Stone, Dekko Comics
Meet Creatia, Persisto and Willforce. They are strong,
determined and creative, and they represent the strengths
that dyslexia can bring to your life. Together they encourage
you to use your skills and talents to be confident in
what you do – and shrink the villain Mr Dyspicibilia!
This is a fun and interactive resource for grown-ups and
children to work through together, with drawing and writing
activities and examples to open up helpful discussions and
find practical solutions that put the dyslexic child’s selfesteem
and self-understanding at the fore. The strategies in
the book are brought to life through the three superheroes
who help you develop a child’s unique strengths to tackle
the everyday challenges they may experience with reading,
writing, staying organised or keeping track of the time. The
colourful illustrations, cartoons and dialogue encourage
children to name their feelings, identify challenges
and recognise their own strengths in any situation.
“An incredibly useful resource for all
dyslexic children and the grown-ups who
support them in their dyslexia journey.”
– Cathy Magee, chief executive of Dyslexia Scotland
“Such a useful book, carefully created to keep
children with dyslexia engaged, help them stand up
for themselves, and work out all the ways they excel.”
–Margaret Rooke, author of
‘Dyslexia is my Superpower (Most of the Time)’
