El Deafo meets Wonder in this groundbreaking story of Deafness, identity, friendship, protest, and belonging.Because she can lipread and speak, sixth grader Amy LaPointe has never really thought of herself as deaf. She's a typical tween. She goes to public school, has friends, loves music, and mostly fits in, even if she has to work harder at it.Then she sees a protest on TV called "Deaf President Now," advocating for deaf rights, and it sparks a revolution inside her too. Over the course of eight nail-biting days, with her own simmering friend and family drama--and a looming sleepover party that is causing more stress than excitement--Amy starts to question: Why does everyone around her pretend she's just like them when she isn't? And what will it take for others to see her--and for Amy to embrace herself--as she truly is?This joyful, painful, and triumphant story invites you to see the world through deaf eyes and appreciate the uniqueness inside every human being.
