About this book

Español

Quiero ser la que seré

Cuando María del Carmen lee o escribe cambia las letras de lugar o las confunde con otras, por eso sus maestras la regañan, pues creen que es rebelde y caprichosa. Mari relata los días de su vida cotidiana en los que, debido a su peculiaridad, se tiene que enfrentar a las burlas de los demás niños y comentarios negativos de las personas. Pero Mari no lo hace intencionalmente, sino que tiene una dificultad que no le permite leer y escribir como los demás. Ella nos relata su historia, que se desarrolla en una época en la que no se conocía la dislexia y mucho menos se sabía que necesita un tratamiento especial.

English

I Want to Be Who I Will Be

When María del Carmen reads or writes, she changes the letters or confuses them with others, for this reason her teachers scold her, because they believe that she is rebellious and capricious. Mari herself recounts the days of her daily life in which, due to her peculiarity, she has to face the ridicule of other children and negative comments from people. But Mari, she does not do it intentionally, but rather she has a difficulty that does not allow her to read and write like the others. She tells us her story, which takes place in a time when her dyslexia was not known, much less it was known that she needs special treatment.
