When we would transition and I'd let them know we are going to read 'Hacking the Code', they would literally cheer." </em><strong>- Mrs. Hart, 3rd grade teacher, Top of the World Elementary</strong></p><p><strong>----</strong></p><p><em>"Kees and an appealing cast of characters show readers the learning differences between "Apple and Android" brains in an engaging story of fifth grade challenges and fun pranks. An eye-opening tale of the struggles with dyslexia that promotes insight and compassion. As an educator and a parent, I highly recommend Hacking the Code!" </em>- <strong>Jennifer Rincon, Teacher</strong></p><p>----</p><p><em>"I loved the joy of my son reading the book. He thinks it's hilarious! He was inspired to create his own 'friends club' and even came up with a name for it." </em>- <strong>Belen Guillen, mother of a 3rd grader</strong></p><p>----</p><p>"<em>This is a wonderful book. I - a grown-up and the mother of a dyslexic son - was drawn in straight away and finished it in no time. It is written in easy prose with funny dry humor, appealing to kids and this grown-up. It flows very quickly and because the hero is so likable and realistic, you feel with him and want him to succeed. The high point is the hero's beautiful essay at the end, it could have been written by my son, it so well echoes his situation. And I wish for more teachers like the principal, who awarded Kees for his feedback, because when the system doesn't work for all kids, it is time to adapt the system.</em></p><p><em>This book would be great for teachers and for other kids to create better understanding for diversity in general and dyslexics specifically. And it is a great book for dyslexic kids to show, that they can be successful and are not alone</em>." - <strong>Katja Rieger, </strong> <strong>Leadership Consultant and mother of a dyslexic son</strong></p><p>----</p><p>"<em>What I like about Hacking the Code is that it's calling out today's children. The idea of using the "Android" and "Apple" as an example was fascinating. In addition to this, the main character has people who support him, such as his best friend, teacher, school psychologist, family, and grandfather. This depicts how dyslexic children can be strong in other areas when they receive social support from these people. </em></p><p><em>As a development psychologist, I would recommend Hacking the Code for children who either or not experience dyslexia.</em> "- <strong>Deniz Hazal Karabulut, M.A., Developmental Psychologist</strong></p>
