What's Mixed-Up About

Publisher Summary

New York Times bestselling author Kami Garcia has returned with a middle grade graphic novel about the struggles of a game-loving girl who gets diagnosed with dyslexia and her loving support network that help her along in the journey. Stella knows fifth grade will be the best year ever. Her closest friends, Emiko and Latasha, are in her class and they all got the teacher they wanted. Then their favorite television show, Witchlins, announces a new guidebook and an online game! But when the classwork starts piling up, Stella struggles to stay on top. Why does it take her so long to read? And how can she keep up with friends in the Witchlins game if she can’t get through the text-heavy guidebook? It takes loving teachers and her family to recognize that Stella has a learning difference, and after a dyslexia diagnosis she gets the support and tools she needs to succeed. Bestselling author Kami Garcia was inspired to write this special book by her daughter’s dyslexia journey; her own neurodivergent experience; and the many students she taught over the years. With subtle design and formatting choices making this story accessible to all readers, Mixed-Up shows that our differences don’t need to separate us. Mixed-Up has been lettered in Dyslexie to make reading as comfortable as possible for dyslexic readers. Praise: “A cozy blanket for those of us with learning differences. I wish I’d had this book when I was growing up with dyscalculia.” – Hope Larson, New York Times bestselling & Eisner-winning cartoonist “Carefully and gently discusses the frustrations and struggles…and handles it beautifully with empathy and compassion.” –Dan Santat, National Book Award winner “[I love] the pacing, the length…the easter eggs, the magic, and Brittney Williams’ art.”–Kwame Alexander, Emmy Award-winning producer and #1 New York Times bestselling author
