Dyslexia: TIME FOR TALENT is a Readers' Favorite International Award Winner and recipient of multiple 5-star reviews and recognitions.
TIME FOR TALENT is a wealth of information for parents of children with dyslexia. It guides and empowers parents through dyslexia, from the early years through to adulthood. It is the first book of its kind to address dyslexia from a holistic perspective: academically, emotionally, behaviourally, socially and spiritually.
Award-winning author Carolina Frohlich is an international speaker, consultant to schools and parents, qualified specialist teacher of children with Learning Differences (difficulties) and High Potential (gifted) underachievers. The author has dyslexia and is the parent of 2 children with dyslexia and dyspraxia.
From personal and professional experience, the author knows that if dyslexia is not addressed early, considerately or holistically, it can affect children's self-esteem, morale, achievement potential and self-confidence.

BERNADETTE MCLEAN, PRINCIPAL OF THE HELEN ARKELL DYSLEXIA CENTRE: I am delighted to write the foreword to this timely and comprehensive book. Dyslexia: TIME FOR TALENT celebrates the difference in style and learning that people with dyslexia bring to their worlds at home, school and in the workplace. Carolina speaks as a parent and as an educator as well as offering her own dyslexic perspective. The book is accessible, informative and positive. It works right through the age range to adulthood and this journey of support is made credible by the many case studies showing dyslexia alongside co-existing difficulties. Refer to it as a complete book of recipes some for now, some for later. Or, treat it like the road map that Carolina offers and get on with your journey wherever you are. The comprehensive nature of TIME FOR TALENT means that many holistic approaches are included for those who want to add these to their toolkit. Parents of children with dyslexia will find Time for Talent invaluable; in fact I would suggest that there are excellent parenting strategies for parents of any children. This is the ideal book for the multiple diversity of people who have dyslexia, and the multi-faceted people who care for them something for everyone.
