AHH I loved this!! Super cute, funny, and insightful. NOT didactic but also a really useful way for hearing children to think about deafness and treating their deaf peers. Definitely a great readalike for [b:Smile 6393631 Smile (Smile, #1) Raina Telgemeier https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1256154174s/6393631.jpg 6582125]. And like Smile, I think it could have a wide appeal, from older elementary kids probably up through junior high or so. (And adults too, of course!)
