Discover the strengths of dyslexia and how to recognise, support and unlock its potential with the empowering guide from the award-winning entrepreneur and dyslexia advocate.
Kate Griggs, founder and CEO of charity Made By Dyslexia, has been shifting the narrative on dyslexia and educating people on its strengths for decades. Having been surrounded by an extraordinary 'smorgasbord of Dyslexic Thinking' her whole life, Griggs knows the superpower of dyslexia all too well.
In This is Dyslexia, Griggs covers everything you need to understand, value and support Dyslexic Thinking. In this groundbreaking guide you’ll discover:

- The 6 core Dyslexic Thinking skills in adults
- Practical advice on how to support dyslexic children and adults at home, school and work
- How dyslexia has shaped innovation and why it’s vital for the future
With a foreword by Sir Richard Branson and inspiring quotes from well-known dyslexics including Jamie Oliver, Orlando Bloom and HRH Princess Beatrice, this revised and updated edition brings together new research, real-world insight, and practical advice.
Clear and accessible, This is Dyslexia redefines and reshapes what it means to be dyslexic and shows why harnessing its powers and strengths is vital to our future.
