Michael and the A-Mountain: The Read-Aloud Book to Help Your Child Overcome Dyslexia

By Jesper Sehested

Michael and the A-Mountain opens a difficult conversation about the challenges of dyslexia and strengthens your child's self-worth (8-12 years).

The questions along the story create a cozy framework for your conversation. You do not have to ask your own questions about the story. You will hear your child talk about those pesky letters and the feelings that stop your child from being happy and accepting their dyslexia.

At the same time, your child can see themselves in the story's main character, Michael, who also finds it difficult to read and spell. He takes you along on his journey up the A-Mountain, where he discovers how his dyslexia has prevented him from being happy both in school and elsewhere.

After reading this read-aloud book, your child will gain:

Optimism about their future with dyslexiaAwareness of the feelings caused by dyslexia and how they should not stop your child's dreams for the futureTheir own story of their difficulties and their path to being a happy child

The author of the book, Jesper Sehested, is also dyslexic.

As a child, he thought he was alone, stupid, and different because he couldn't read and spell like his classmates.

But when he accepted his dyslexia as a part of himself, he discovered that he was much more than dyslexic - and definitely not "wrong" in any way!

With Michael and the A-Mountain, you and your child also start the journey up your child's very own A-mountain. And who knows what will happen at the top?
