Dystinct II is not just an impressively designed coffee table book, it is also a beautiful compilation of inspirational stories of coping with the struggles and hardships that learning difficulties bring.
It also contributes to spreading awareness for learning difficulties.
Dystinct partners with not-for-profit organisations to work in the space of learning difficulties worldwide.
Oliver had a short biography written in the book introduction as one of the contributing doodlers.
It asked for submissions from children who love drawing and doodling to illustrate the book, and Oliver was highlighted as one of the ‘Contributing Doodlers’.
Oliver's second included drawing.
This beautiful compilation is a labour of love, featuring the incredible journeys of everyday people with learning difficulties, evidence-based content contributed by specialists from around the world and colourful illustrations created by children with learning difficulties.
The cover of Dystinct II is turquoise, a colour known to have mostly positive connotations for people with dyslexia, as it promotes creativity, calm, serenity, tranquillity and relaxation, according to colour psychology studies.
