October is Dyslexia Awareness Month, offering a wonderful opportunity to deepen our understanding of neurodiversity, celebrate different ways of thinking, and amplify accessible learning spaces.
If you are looking to learn more or share insights with the children and adults in your life, there are incredible resources available. One of my absolute favorites is the children’s book Brilliant Bea by Shaina Rudolph and Mary Vukadinovich. It is a heartwarming, beautifully told story that captures the brilliance, creativity, and resilience of a young girl navigating dyslexia, reminding us all that learning differently is a strength.
You can also listen to Mary Vukadinovich read Brilliant Bea aloud on YouTube.
Whether you are an educator, parent, or lifelong learner, taking a few moments this month to explore resources, listen to diverse perspectives, and champion accessibility can make a profound ripple effect in our communities.
