Summary: An Adequate Account, But Not The Best Example
Comment: As I, a Deaf adult, read this book, I found myself a bit irritated at times. It is very generalized and can be stereotypical, which I don't feel is the best example to teach a child about deafness (the whole purpose of the book). The pictures are all right, but not captivating and I'm not confident that they would keep a child's attention. As the title of my review reads, this is an adequate book to add to your library of deafness, but to stand alone as the sole example of a deaf child or deaf person...NOT recommended. :v(

Rating: 4
Summary: Deafness as experienced by a hearing sibling
Comment: I found this book to be very useful in talking about differences and believe that it CAN be a very useful tool in developing curricula around differences and treatment of people who are perceived as "different." Perfect? No, but nicely told through the eyes of a child.

Rating: 1
Summary: Stereotype of children who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Comment: As someone with a severe hearing loss, and also the father of a 7 year old girl with a profound hearing loss--I thought the focus of the book was too much on what the sister, who is deaf, could not do. Too stereotypical--I would NOT recommend this book for purchase.
