The Awesome Animals series is a collection of weird but true books for kids about the animal kingdom. Half fact and half fun, each book features an animal which is missing something that we’re taught to expect should be there. But these animals don’t just thrive despite that absence, they thrive because of it.
All books use a dyslexia-friendly type-face. With dyslexia, we often focus on the challenges – difficulty reading. But thanks to the way the dyslexic brain is built, people with dyslexia are often creative, intuitive and highly successful. In other words, those people aren’t thriving despite their dyslexic brain, they are thriving because of it.

Terrific Turtles 💚🐢💚
Holy honu! (Honu is “turtle” in Hawaiian). I love turtles, and I love this short book. It’s all about turtles and their secret ears. I don’t have children, don’t work with kids, and I didn’t read this with a child. I still enjoyed reading this. This book is fun and informative for all ages. Since it was written for pre-elementary school, the language is simple and the illustrations are whimsical.I read this twice. First on my computer via Amazon read, second time on my Kindle. It works well both ways, but on my Kindle it’s best using the tablet horizontally. Both times I was impressed by the formatting, the colors, and the font. I didn’t realize that font is supposed to help people with dyslexia until I went to the book’s page. Wow! I’m going to read the rest of the series and support this author.No typos! Five big, shiny, gold stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
