Diary of a Dyslexic Duck

By Stuart C Yudofsky

Meet Duart Duck, a young mallard who struggles with dyslexia and ADHD.

Like many children with learning differences, Duart finds reading, writing, paying attention, and following directions difficult. As he watches his brothers and sisters succeed at tasks that seem impossible for him, he begins to doubt himself and wonder if he will ever find his place in the world.

Everything changes when Duart meets Henrietta, a wise hummingbird who helps him understand that his challenges do not define him. Through a series of adventures and life lessons, Henrietta teaches Duart how to set goals, make plans, work hard, think creatively, and discover his unique strengths. Together, they learn that differences can become distinctions and that every individual has gifts worth celebrating.

Set against the beautiful backdrop of Alaska, Diary of a Dyslexic Duck is an inspiring and heartwarming fable about resilience, self-acceptance, perseverance, and the power of believing in yourself. Written by psychiatrist Stuart C. Yudofsky, M.D., who draws upon both professional expertise and personal experience with dyslexia, this book offers encouragement and hope to children, parents, educators, and anyone navigating the challenges of learning differences.

A meaningful story for readers of all ages, Diary of a Dyslexic Duck reminds us that our greatest challenges can often lead us to discover our greatest strengths.
