FROM THE POWERHOUSE DUO BEHIND ALLERGIC COMES A GRAPHIC NOVEL ABOUT
FINDING YOUR OWN SPACE. WHEN YOU'RE IN A FAMILY OF NINE!
Eleven-year-old Avery Lee loves living in Hickory Valley, Maryland.
But she's tired of feeling squished by her six siblings! All Avery
wants is her own room -- her own space to be alone and make art.
Avery hatches a plan to finally get her own room, all while trying
navigating changes in her friendships, and working on an art entry
for the fair. And when Avery finds out that her family might move
across the country, things get even more complicated. A funny,
heartfelt, and charming story of family, friendship, and growing
up.
Going to school and making new friends can be tough. But going to
school and making new friends while wearing a bulky hearing aid
strapped to your chest? That requires superpowers In this funny,
poignant graphic novel memoir, author/illustrator Cece Bell
chronicles her hearing loss at a young age and her subsequent
experiences with the Phonic Ear, a very powerful--and very
awkward--hearing aid.
The Phonic Ear gives Cece the ability to hear--sometimes things she
shouldn't--but also isolates her from her classmates. She really
just wants to fit in and find a true friend, someone who
appreciates her as she is. After some trouble, she is finally able
to harness the power of the Phonic Ear and become "El Deafo,
Listener for All." And more importantly, declare a place for
herself in the world and find the friend she's longed for.
