Description
Effie is Deaf, and no one in her family speaks sign language, her language. This moving story of survival and found family, inspired by a true court case, is perfect for fans of Wonder and Out of My Mind.
"Will break your heart and then make it whole again."—Holly Goldberg Sloan, New York Times bestselling author of Counting by 7s
"Ann Clare LeZotte is such a talent and deserves to be widely read!"—Lisa Yee, author of the Newbery Honor book and National Book Award Finalist Maizy Chen's Last Chance
Effie and her older sister, Deja, have recently moved into their father's trailer after an incident at their mom's house. Daddy communicates with Effie by pointing, stomping on the floor, and making thoughtless jokes. Even if they did understand each other, could she tell the terrible secret she carries when telling feels impossible—and dangerous?
But what if telling is the only way to be seen?
This tender, spare, emotionally charged story about the impact of abuse and the power of love explores what it feels like to be an outsider in your own family and to awaken—through friendship, writing, and kinship with the natural world—to a new understanding and appreciation of yourself.
