I would like to recommend the book 'Reversals: A Personal Account Of Victory Over Dyslexia' written by Eileen Simpson, which is suggested in the Certificate in the Teaching of Children with Dyslexia course.

I have lost count of how many times I have now read this book! Both in an academic sense and as bedtime reading! The book gives a great written account of what it is like to grow up unknowingly with dyslexia.

Also, I would recommend the documentary 'Kara Tointon: Don't Call Me Stupid', which was aired on BBC Three. The documentary follows Kara, a British actress with dyslexia, to find out more about dyslexia, particularly outlining the importance of recognising that a child has dyslexia and the possible consequences if it goes unrecognised.

Hope this helps!
