We are always on the hunt for books with the following characteristics:

• Authentic dyslexic characters
• Nonfiction text that has key word reference page
• Nonfiction text that includes key word pronunciations alongside the word
• Literary, artistic, or informational merit
• Accessible reading levels on diverse topics of interest through teen years
• Written or illustrated by dyslexic authors
• A positive or balanced portrayal of dyslexia
• Literacy methods that are evidence-based, effective, and fun

These lists are continuously updated as new books are reviewed each month. Happy reading!
