Description

Brilliant Bea is an endearing and empowering story that demonstrates that a learning difference like dyslexia doesn't define who you are.Despite her struggles with reading and writing, Beatrice is a natural and brilliant storyteller. With the help of a kind-hearted teacher, Beatrice uses an old-fashioned tape recorder so she can speak her words and them play them back, as a technique for learning in a whole new way. With her new approach, Beatrice is able to show her classmates who she really has been all along.This book is set in EasyReading, a dyslexia-friendly font.

Reviews

A child with dyslexia gains confidence in herself... Appropriately, said text is set in a readable, sans-serif type to support dyslexic readers who might encounter her story... Affirming and helpful.

This book succeeds as a story about dyslexia not because the characters spout definitions of dyslexia, but rather because the story opens a window into the mind of one dyslexic child, Bea, and shows readers how adults can make a significant impact on the emotional state, and therefore the education, of children with learning differences... A heartwarming story that will expand the understanding of dyslexia for children and adults.

The teacher's supportive actions are wonderful to see, but even better is how the tape recorder helps Bea connect with her classmates. Printed in a dyslexia-friendly font, this affirming story about finding your feet and your voice is a lovely confidence booster for young readers, especially those who may learn differently.
