“My daughter and I both viewed the film and we thought it was very validating as both of us are dyslexic. I helps others to understand what dyslexia is and what it is like to be dyslexic in mainstream schooling. I think a follow up should be done and maybe give others solutions that have worked for them such as Davis Dyslexia Strategies or many others.Maybe what it is like from a teachers perspective and the struggles they face including or altering their teaching style to help the dyslexic student succeed with confidence.The film shows us all that we have to follow the path that is right for us and we need to follow the gifts that help us be successful.”
