This is a great read. The following text is from a post, written by the authors, on The Limping Chicken:
“The book is about our daughter Ava, who is like any other 7-year-old. She likes to talk and laugh with her friends, is obsessed with dogs and loves being active. Ava also happens to be deaf – and she’s proud of it.
She loves her Deaf community, that she’s bilingual, and that she experiences the world differently from hearing people.
In this book, Ava welcomes her hearing peers to her daily life, the way technology helps her navigate the world and explains common misconceptions about deaf people – and introduces some of her deaf heroes who have achieved amazing things.
She talks about her experiences at school making friends with hearing children, and teaches readers the BSL alphabet and BSL phrases.”
