Recommended by Dyslexia Assessor Craig Keane, Director of Develop Us in Wales. "I'm a specialist dyslexia assessor and teacher. I was looking for a book to recommend to parents of children I assess and teach. I wasn't expecting to learn much from the book because I'm a specialist in this field. I was wrong! Beth presents interesting statistics about dyslexia and how it can impact people in society. She explores different ways you can explain dyslexia to anyone of any age using the octopus theory! I highly recommend this book to parents, teachers, specialists and anyone who would like to educate themselves about dyslexia!"  
"While reading this book, I have several "Ah ha!" moments that explain my child's behaviour. The book made me feel I had confided all my concerns to her, and she gave me answers. I read articles, research papers and other books, but none have really explained to me so well the many "whys?" and what I need to know about my child." Amazon review.

Egg - A Dozen Ovatures

Lizzie Stark

An unconventional history of the world’s largest cellular workhorse, from chickens to penguins, from art to crime, and more. 
The egg is a paradox―both alive and not alive―and a symbol as old as culture itself. In this wide-ranging and delightful journey through its natural and cultural history, Lizzie Stark explores the egg’s deep meanings, innumerable uses, and metabolic importance through a dozen dazzling specimens. 
From Mali to Finland, mythologies around the globe have invested the egg with powers of regeneration and fecundity, often ascribing the origin of the world to a cosmic egg. An oracle to Romans, fought over by Gold Rush gangs, used as the foundation of the Clown Egg Registry, and blasted into space, the egg has taken on larger proportions than, say, the ovum of an ostrich. 
It has starred in global dishes from the Korean comfort food ttukbaegi gyeranjjim to the less regaled yet iconic soft-boiled egg. Stark writes a biography of French-born chef Jacques Pépin through his egg creations, and weaves in her personal experiences, like attempting to make the perfect omelet or trying her hand at pysanky―the Ukrainian art of egg decoration. She also explores her fraught relationship to the eggs in her body due to a familial link to cancer, and shares her delight in becoming a mother. 
Filled with colorful characters and fascinating morsels, Egg is playful, informative, and guarantees that you’ll never take this delicate ovoid for granted again.

Got ADHD? - My Superhero Brain

Joe Regina

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
Ever feel like your brain has its own agenda? Like it woke up, grabbed a coffee, ignored the plan, misplaced the keys, started five new projects, forgot the original mission, and somehow still believed it was doing a great job?

Welcome to Got ADHD? My Superhero Brain.

This is not a dry textbook about ADHD. It’s not a lecture, a pity party, or one of those books that tells you to “just get organized,” as if a color-coded planner can control a brain powered by rocket fuel, background music, random memories, and 47 open mental tabs.

This is a sarcastic, honest, and occasionally ridiculous memoir about living with a brain that refuses to follow the usual rules.
ADHD can feel like a superpower one minute and a complete systems failure the next. One day, you’re locked into hyperfocus like a genius in a movie montage. The next, you’re standing in the kitchen with no idea why you walked in there, wondering if this is how it all ends.

Through personal stories, hard-earned lessons, and plenty of humor, Joe Regina explores the chaos, frustration, creativity, and surprising strengths of the ADHD brain. From childhood labels and emotional side quests to forgotten tasks, questionable time management, career breakthroughs, and the mysterious ability to procrastinate until panic becomes a productivity tool, nothing is off-limits.

This book is for anyone who has ever felt like their mind was both the hero and the villain of the story. Whether you have ADHD, love someone who does, or simply want to understand what life feels like inside a brain operating like a superhero on espresso, Got ADHD? My Superhero Brain offers a funny, relatable, and unapologetically real look at the disorder and the person behind it.

There’s no cape. There’s no instruction manual.

But there are snacks, unfinished projects, and probably a lost phone sitting somewhere obvious.
