Mixed-Up: A Graphic Novel

Mixed-Up: A Graphic Novel by Kami Garcia is the story of Stella, who knows that fifth grade will be the best year ever. Her closest friends, Emiko and Latasha, are in her class, and they all got the teacher they wanted.

The excitement doesn't stop there as their favourite television show, Witchlins, announces a new guidebook and an online game!

However, Stella soon finds herself struggling to keep up when classwork starts piling up. She wonders why it takes her so long to read and how she can keep up with her friends in the Witchlins game if she can’t get through the text-heavy guidebook.

The challenges with the guidebook create a distance between her and her friends in the game. It takes the care and concern of loving teachers and family to realise that Stella has a learning difference.

After a dyslexia diagnosis, Stella receives the support and tools she needs to succeed, proving that with the right help, she can overcome her obstacles and stay connected with her friends.
