Afraid to ask for help, she believes she’s “dumb.” But her new teacher, Mr. Daniels, recognizes her creativity and helps her see dyslexia is nothing to be ashamed of. As Ally gains confidence, she embraces her true self and discovers that everyone is more than a label, and great minds think differently.
