New York Times bestselling author Kami Garcia has returned with a middle grade graphic novel about the struggles of a game-loving girl who gets diagnosed with dyslexia and her loving support network that help her along in the journey.
Stella knows fifth grade will be the best year ever. Her closest friends, Emiko and Latasha, are in her class and they all got the teacher they wanted. Then their favorite television show, Witchlins, announces a new guidebook and an online game!
But when the classwork starts piling up, Stella struggles to stay on top. Why does it take her so long to read? And how can she keep up with friends in the Witchlins game if she cant get through the text-heavy guidebook? And when she cant deal with the text-heavy Witchlins guidebook, she cant keep up with her friends in the game. It takes loving teachers and her family to recognize that Stella has a learning difference, and after a dyslexia diagnosis she gets the support and tools she needs to succeed.
Bestselling author Kami Garcia was inspired to write this special book by her daughters dyslexia journey; her own neurodivergent experience; and the many students she taught over the years. With subtle design and formatting choices making this story accessible to all readers, Mixed-Up shows that our differences dont need to separate us.
To make reading as comfortable as possible for dyslexic readers, the book has been lettered in Dyslexie.
Paperback | Ages 8-12 | 208 pages | 5.20″ x 7.60″
From the author of Restart, the story of two boys who are losing their memories… to each other.
Reef and Theo don’t know what’s happening to them. They’ll be going about their days and then suddenly they’ll have these strange flashes of memory — but the memories don’t belong to them. And at the same time, their own memories are starting to… vanish.
For Reef, this is a big problem, because memories are all he has left of his mom.
For Theo, it’s strange because the new memories give him a freedom he doesn’t have with his domineering dad.
