What’s an advantage of dyslexia?

Too much to cover in a comment! Here's a good book on the subject: https://www.dyslexicadvantage.org/

Edit: wait, that may be the wrong link. Here's the book I meant: https://www.amazon.com/Dyslexic-Advantage-Unlocking-Hidden-Potential/dp/0452297923 (sorry for using an Amazon link)

You could give one or two examples before the ad.

I was short on time but wanted to recommend a book that drastically changed my life and improved my mental health. I have no moral issues recommending it; one can always look up a summary, or easily read it free of cost using shadow libraries (not that I recommend that).

However, I will humor you, and include a short summary here:

  • better memory for stories
  • better ability to think three dimensionally
  • better ability to think dynamically (changing or uncertain variables)
  • and some others I can't remember off the top of my head.

Hope this helps.
