Overview

Molly gets diagnosed with dyslexia and learns it's okay to ask for help when she needs it. Molly has a big imagination and loves to solve problems and learn new things. But Molly also struggles to spell, write, and read as quickly as her classmates. With the support of her friend Lexi (an imaginary character who represents being dyslexic), Molly summons the courage to ask her teacher Mr. Mitchell for help. Molly learns how to self-advocate and discovers that it's okay to be different. Everyday Adventures with Molly and Dyslexia Molly and Lexi empower dyslexic children to embrace their strengths. Written by a dyslexic author who's an advocate for dyslexic kids, this three-book series follows the adventures of a young girl, Molly, and her personified dyslexia, Lexi. Together, they navigate the challenges of dyslexia with creativity and determination, touching on themes of self-advocacy, self-esteem, and personal strengths. The series helps dyslexic kids feel seen and understood and grows understanding and empathy in all children.
