Charles Davis

his book is for the growing individual who is looking for a place to start their journey towards self-acceptance and learning.  The author invites the reader to look deep within themselves by giving her autobiographical account of her experience with a common, often demonized learning difference: Dyslexia.  She also offers practical advice that spans beyond the topic and into everyday life.  A must-read for those with an inquisitive, open mind."

In her memoir, where she unpacks her experiences of living with dyslexia, Anne takes the readers' hands and guides them through various personal and educational journeys, using gentle, yet cogent words to draw students, teachers, and professionals alike into her introspective world. Anne’s resilience shines through her frank and uplifting accounts as she invites readers to explore with her the difficult questions that challenge one’s own perceptions and assumptions of themselves, and offers feasible suggestions to help resolve some of these tensions
