'Every so often there is a book that punches you in the gut with its honesty and realism. This was one of those. A captivating account of JA’s struggles growing up with dyslexia in the 70s and 80s. This is not just the usual description of how children struggle with dyslexia. It is a remarkable tale of resilience and of posttraumatic growth. This is the story of one of those kids who was “different” at school, and unravels the reasons behind why those children might be quiet or reserved in the classroom. It is the biography of one man’s ability to find peace in himself after trauma and how, through a fabulous bond with nature, he was able to find freedom in words and to conquer childhood adversity.'
Dr Anna Scarna. Oxford University.
