Finding Your Voice with Dyslexia and other SpLDs Reviews

What an amazing book! Ginny Stacey has been extraordinarily productive during lockdown with her series of 4 books. Here we have everything you could possibly need to find your voice as a dyslexic/ SpLD; impeccably organised in a series of mind maps and boxes to dip into. My dyslexic husband loved the plan! -Angela Fawcett, Swansea University, UK

Finding Your Voice with Dyslexia and other SpLDs is practical, personal and positive about dyslexic strengths, as well as providing ways to overcome the pitfalls. It offers a valuable balance of ideas, anecdotes and theory to enable the reader to work out the best ways to use their own individual thinking patterns. -Alex Brown, Specialist SpLD Support Tutor & Dyslexia Assessor, Member of Oxford SpLD Tutor Group, UK


'Understanding the impact that dyslexia/ SpLD has on our lives is an incredibly challenging undertaking which is wonderfully executed by Stacey and Fowler. They go beyond this by providing an intuitive guide for dyslexic individuals to help across all aspects of our lives, be it in everyday life or when applied to academic study. The design of the book enables any reader to choose their own path through the book with exercises, strategies, and suggestions helping facilitate understanding of how dyslexia and SpLDs affect us all.'-Thomas Hird, PhD candidate in Physics at University College London and Oxford University, and former SpLD student of Ginny Stacey, UK

' Know yourself - that's the key message from this book. Images, both visual and written, analogies from maps to gardening, insights and movement ideas are used to understand dyslexia and other SpLDs. The layout helps us: clear font; text boxes; short blocks of text; mind maps; use of colour; glossary notes and clear routes or pathways through the different chapters which can be individualised. Lots of ideas here, so this book will help both dyslexic individuals and anyone who comes into contact with them - that is, all of us!' - Sally Daunt, SpLD support tutor, Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts, UK
