pick#JuneSpecials Day 16: Abdul is a storyteller – except he hesitates to call himself as one. He finds it difficult to pin down the words that would express the images in his mind. The image above even suggests that Abdul may be suffering from dyslexia or undiagnosed #LearningDisability #LrngDisability. Eventually, Abdul discovered that the mistakes, misspelled words are part of what it means to be a storyteller. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-owi

A really beautiful story about finding strength in our weaknesses. As someone who struggled with math and had similar unhealthy/unhelpful coping mechanisms to Ally, this was very poignant for me. I loved the characters and their relationships. The friendships were organic and real. Mr. Daniels might be my new favorite fictional teacher. So much emotion packed into such a short book. I absolutely loved it.
This was my #BookSpin for January.
