by Hillary Summerbell (Author)
**This book is presented in both standard and Summerbell Program curved text!**
For fifty years, the world told Hillary Summerbell her brilliant mind was broken.
Pulled from classrooms, marked in red, and quietly shuffled toward failure, Hillary grew up with undiagnosed dyslexia - retreating into imagination and design to survive a system that had no language for the way she saw the world.
Then she rewrote her story.
From summa cum laude graduate to sought-after interior designer, Hillary's life became one of relentless reinvention. But her most electrifying chapter arrived in 2019, when a single moment of clarity led her to a breakthrough: curving text on a page allowed her to read - truly read - for the first time. Now teachers who have used the Summerbell Positional Reading Arc describe it as "watching struggling students put on glasses."
Part memoir, part manifesto, Beautifully Unread is essential reading for the 1 in 5 Americans with dyslexia - and for anyone who has ever been told they weren't enough.
