My Brain Is Bigger Than Yours: The Truth about Dyslexia

Sharon Mandon is dyslexic wife, mother of three dyslexic daughters, and a 30 plus year credentialed teacher. She began to research dyslexia when her daughters began to struggle with reading and spelling over 20 years ago. She has been a diligent champion for dyslexics both in her private and professional life. Recently one of her dyslexic students wrote an essay on the power of the spoken word. She had to use examples from history, but then got to pick a person from their current lives to write about. Her student wrote about Mrs. Mandon and said that her words of encouragement and understanding about dyslexia and the tools she had given her to overcome her challenges had changed her life forever. Promoting understanding in everyone towards dyslexia and changing lives for the better is her driving passion and the inspiration for this book. Her daughters - Sarah, Katie, and Bethany were contributors to the content of this book from the beginning. Dyslexia is a family affair and all successes are shared. Katie Moore is a stay home mother and the illustrator of "My Brain is Bigger than Yours: The Truth About Dyslexia". She first did these drawings as a Jr. Higher, still very much struggling with her dyslexia in school. She redrew and painted them recently as a Magna Cum Laud college graduate, gifted artist, Etsy shop owner, and very productive adult!
