Fish Don't Climb Trees
A Whole New Look at Dyslexia
“This book is a 'must read' for anyone that is, or has a loved one, that is dyslexic.”
Ronald D. Davis ~ Author The Gift of Dyslexia
I’ve just finished a phone call with a very excited mum of a dyslexic and ADHD teenager. As soon as her daughter was identified as being both, she began researching and came across your book, Fish Don’t Climb Trees and was totally inspired as well as informed.
She said she found you heartwarming, positive and encouraging and just loved the asset and gift focus. In fact, it was your gentle heart-warming tone – she used that term a few times – most encouraging. And the fact that Davis has such a positive strength-based approach.
I told her what a beautiful and gentle person you are and that I’d spent some time with you at the symposium, and about the Ted Talk you did. So I’m sending her a link to that. By the way, it’s ranking no 1 when I searched 'Ted talk on Dyslexia'!!

Some exciting news I simply had to share with you.
Yesterday I was contacted by a very enthusiastic mother of a dyslexic child, who read The Gift of Dyslexia years ago but didn’t completely get it. She found it a bit tricky to get her head around it. However, she is now reading your book, which she said is pulling it all together. She was overflowing with praise and enthusiasm, and how you make it all very real. She really related to everything you wrote about and shared in such a grounded and real way.
I told her I knew you and would pass on her thanks for your book. It has changed everything for her, and she is now so incredibly hopeful for her son. So there you go! Yet another person whose life you have changed and transformed!!
