It’s not often assumed that a youth who has difficulty reading would become an author as an adult. After all, rarely are the words authors and dyslexia put together let alone authors with dyslexia. However, thankfully, many adults are incorrect when predicting the future of youth who have difficulty with reading. Unfortunately, too often, it‘s assumed that these youth won’t have much of a future at all. This is why I wanted to feature authors that defy stereotypes. I hope you enjoy reading about these incredibly inspiring children’s book authors with dyslexia!

This blog post is one that focuses on individuals who had difficulty with reading as a youth, yet went on to become authors of children’s books as an adult. I write it in hopes that it may help to inspire youth who currently struggle with the reading process.
