This way a sweet story that I am happy to pass onto my kids.
Kees is a typical 5th grader except that he has trouble with language (dyslexia). He gets having to read out loud, to write paragraphs, and to do spelling tests.
When he goes a prank too far, his principal makes him write a 2 page paper on "the hardest thing he's ever done" in 2 weeks! This makes him panic as he knows it will be too hard for him to do.
I really like how he explains how his brain works. He calls it an Apple brain and that because, like an Android code can't work for an Apple phone, it doesn't process this like the other kids.
Way to put a fabulous neurodiverse kid at the center of this story!
