mehsi's review against another edition
5.0
Een tof boek over een kleine jongen die houdt van tekenen en daar veel plezier uittrekt.. tot het moment dat hij moet lezen en schrijven en ontdekt dat hij dyslexie heeft. Ik wilde hem zo graag een knuffel geven. Vertellen dat er hulp is. Dat ook met tekenen hij heel ver kan komen!
Ik vond het leuk om ook andere karakters te zien in de klas van de hoofdpersoon die we kennen van de rest van de serie. Leuk ook om te zien dat andere karakters het ook niet zo makkelijk hebben en hij dus niet alleen is.
Mooie art, zoals al verwacht (hoofdreden om het boek te lezen).
Aanrader!!!

This may be my favorite book in the series to date. Aaron Slater's tale is perfect to read in the earliest grades because it will show kids that there are different kinds of learners who may struggle with some things, but thrive in other fields. I know that Aaron Slater will foster empathy in students and teachers alike,

Thanks to #pridebooktours for making this book available to me as part of the book tour.
This follows Aaron Slater a very talent young artist. Just like every other boy, he likes to sit with his parents and family listening to them read to him. He wants to some day read and write his own story but everything he tries and no matter how hard he tries, he just can't seem to do it like his peers. His art is his way of expressing his story. So when his new class teacher asks everyone of her students to write a story and read in class, Aaron stays late into the night trying to write until the words start to float. The next day, he stand in the middle of his class and tells them a story he 'wrote'. Everyone loved his story.
Aaron is dyslexic and his art is his form of expression. Honestly I loved this book so much, it was so beautifully written (almost lyrical, like a rhyme), the story was so heart-warming, and it focused on a reading disability that I battled with as a young child, dyslexia. The art work is just simply divine with a diverse cast of characters. Its a children's book but everyone would benefit from reading it.

This entire series is excellent, but I especially liked that this one hinted at difficulties reading and looking for the areas in which you have natural talent.

Another wonderful book in the Questioneers series. It was great to see a young Black boy be centered in the story. This was significant for my two boys who love these books. It was also significant that Andrea Beaty wrote a story about a young person with a learning disability who could express himself in other ways such as art and illustration. What Aaron could do as an artist mattered and he was still seen and heard. I love this book.

As always, these books are magic - beautiful rhyming words paired with delightfully detailed illustrations. The moment with Aaron and his teacher outside the classroom even made me a bit teary.
