Elisabeth and the Box of Colours

by Katherine Woodfine & Rebecca Cobb (illustrator)

This is a very sweet little dyslexia-friendly book inspired by the early life of Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun (Queen Marie Antoinette’s favourite portrait artist). A story of family, friendship and the power of creativity to help deal with grief, this is a lovely book not just for dyslexic readers but for early readers who are ready to move from picture books to something a bit more like a novel.

Ages 5-9
