I've read everything except "Listen, Slowly" so I'll be happy with whatever is chosen! Probably my favorite of the list is "Paper Things". Jenni, I really enjoyed "Fish in a Tree" but it's possible what you say is true. It's a pretty quick read, though! So even if it's not your favorite, it won't take up much of your time :)
I *loved* Fish in a Tree --- sat down and read it cover to cover!

Thanks for encouraging me to give this book a try. Although I can see a little of the stilted-ness the review refers to, it was actually a pretty good portrayal of how it feels to have dyslexia. I did feel the progress she made in the story seemed a little unrealistic, but I liked how it brings more awareness to this learning difference.
