A Little Bit of Help: Learning words, numbers, and independence together

A Little Bit of Help is the first volume in the Learning with Megan series - an illustrated educational resource designed to support young adults with learning disabilities in reading, numeracy, and everyday independence.Written collaboratively by Megan and Simon Robinson, the book uses real-life stories, repetition, and humour to build confidence and understanding in learners who find conventional reading materials too childish or abstract. Each chapter introduces familiar daily experiences - from shopping and cooking to calendars, time, and emotions - in clear, accessible language supported by images and word lists.Developed during the Covid lockdowns as a home-learning project, A Little Bit of Help blends educational psychology with compassionate teaching. It offers a practical, human approach to literacy and life skills - encouraging learners to read, think, and grow with confidence.
