“The shirt, though. Not a good look for a children’s book store,” another user said.
A separate user commented: “Completely inappropriate….absolutely. Any other place I wouldn’t mind but a CHILDRENS BOOK STORE? She’s nuts.”

InThe Fly Who Flew to Space,a New York Times Best Selling book, Lauren discusses her struggles growing up withdyslexia.
Dyslexia is alearning disabilitythat makes reading and language-related tasks harder. It happens because of disruptions in how your brain processes writing so you can understand it, as per theCleveland Clinic.
For people withdyslexia, their brains have trouble processing what they read, particularlybreaking words into sounds or relating letters to sounds when reading.
This learning difference affects approximately 7% of people worldwide, according to the medical center, although its causes are unclear. Genetics, differences in brain structure and chemistry, and toxic exposures that disrupt brain development can all increase the likelihood ofdyslexia.
