Xtraordinary People Synopsis

A necessary and educational narrative non-fiction book for children that embraces the superpowers that dyslexic thinking brings.

Xtraordinary People highlights for children aged 5-7 how their differences can help them go wherever they want to in life.

Dyslexic children have a diagnosis that tells them they're different, and this book is a comforting reminder that their differences are to be embraced, and their dreams are no less attainable than their peers.

This educational book on dyslexia for children features:

  • Information that demonstrates that dyslexia is a superpower, with many exciting choices and paths available for dyslexic thinkers.
  • Material that empowers children to embrace their differences and helps them to understand what dyslexia is.
  • Content written by Kate Griggs, who is dyslexic herself and the founder of the Dyslexic Thinking movement and charity, Made By Dyslexia.


Dyslexic herself, author Kate Griggs dedicates her life to teaching the world about dyslexic thinking. This book is crafted with love and science, and helps dyslexic children feel seen, with quotes from famous names with dyslexia, such as Kiera Knightley, Princess Beatrice and Richard Branson.

Xtraordinary People shifts the narrative on dyslexia and educates people on its strengths. It's a needed hug for dyslexic children everywhere.
