Winner of the Creative Child Magazine’s Book of the Year award!
Robby the taxi has dyslexia, but he doesn’t let that stand in the way of doing a great job driving riders all around the city. Even though he can’t read the street signs, he has a wonderful memory and knows the streets by heart. One day, a regular customer asks him to go somewhere he’s never been… the airport! But Robby has solved problems like this before, and he finds his way to the airport using his unique outlook and creative skills.
This delightful tale was co-written by Lynn Greenberg and her son Jonathan, who also illustrated the book. Jonathan was born with dyslexia, and with the help of Lynn, learned to overcome his learning differences through creativity and art. By sharing Robby the Dyslexic Taxi with your little one, you’ll start them on their journey to learning how to solve their problems as well, whether they have dyslexia, ADHD, autism, or just need a boost in the direction of finding creative solutions for interesting, unexpected, and difficult problems.
Printed in a dyslexic-friendly font, Robby the Dyslexic Taxi and the Airport Adventure is a fun, engaging story for toddlers, early readers, and primary school students. They’ll love the illustrations and the story while learning that their differences are their superpowers!
