What if the letters in your book began to wiggle, flip, and dance across the page?
Eight-year-old Yesenia-nicknamed Yaya-loves stories, but ADHD and dyslexia make reading a daily challenge. At school, she feels embarrassed when classmates giggle. But everything changes when her teacher announces a treasure hunt in the school garden. The map looks just as confusing as her books-until Yaya realizes her unique way of seeing the world is the key to leading her classmates to the treasure.
Yesenia and the Dancing Letters is a faith-based children's picture book for ages 6-9 that celebrates courage, imagination, and learning differences. With scripture woven gently through the story, it reminds children that being different is not a weakness-it's a gift.
This beautifully illustrated story features:
A diverse heroine kids can relate to
Encouragement for children with ADHD, dyslexia, and other learning differences
Gentle scripture and affirmations that build self-esteem and resilience
A joyful classroom adventure that shows every child they are wonderfully made
Perfect for families, teachers, and churches, this uplifting story belongs in every home and classroom library.
Representation matters, and Yaya's journey will inspire children to embrace their strengths, trust their imagination, and remember that they are God's masterpiece.
