In Zenya’s Trip, a little girl Zenya details an account of a family trip to Cape Cross Seal Colony. The book includes facts about Namibia, and about seals, including a non-fiction section at the end.
The text in this book is designed as an experiment for new and struggling readers and those with dyslexia. It uses the Open Dyslexic font and has words colour coded to help segment the syllables. FKB would appreciate feedback from those in education about the content.
