Despite her struggles with reading and writing, Beatrice is a natural and brilliant storyteller. With the help of a kind-hearted teacher, Beatrice uses an old-fashioned tape recorder so she can speak her words and them play them back, as a technique for learning in whole new way. With her new approach, Beatrice is able to show her classmates who she really has been all along.

Brilliant Bea by Mary Vukadinovich and Shaina Rudolph is an endearing and empowering story that demonstrates that a learning difference like dyslexia doesn’t define who you are.
