Did you know that some of the world' s greatest minds struggled at school? Here are thirty people who may not have been top of their class but who have used their dyslexia to their advantage and changed the world for the better. Read about the ways that these record-breakers, game-changers and risk-takers managed their dyslexia, persevered through hardships and followed their passions to great success. Be inspired by people like Agatha Christie, Richard Branson, Jamie Oliver, Erin Brockovich, Muhammad Ali and Steven Spielberg. This book is an empowering reminder for all kids struggling at school that they can achieve great things with their brilliant minds.
