It is only though having attentive and dedicated parents/caregivers who insist on answers, a very observant teacher, and/or a school district with the means to help students do children finally get diagnosed and taught in a way that allows them to actually learn. And getting that diagnosis and the help she needed was truly life-changing, just like it was for the main character in this book.įor those of you out there reading this book who think that it's unrealistic that a kid could make it to 6th grade without being diagnosed, you are wrong. She felt seen for the first time because she had just been diagnosed officially with dyslexia a few weeks before. My daughter's class read Fish in a Tree when she was in 4th grade, and she was beyond excited. It's extremely hard for me to review this book objectively because it has a lot of personal meaning for me.
