Description
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 requires superpowers. Cece Bell's graphic novel memoir tells the story of her hearing loss at a young age and her experiences with the Phonic Ear, a hearing aid that gives her the ability to hear, but also isolates her from her classmates.
As Cece navigates her way through school, she longs for a true friend who appreciates her as she is. With the help of the Phonic Ear, she eventually finds a way to harness its power and become "El Deafo, Listener for All." This empowering autobiographical story is a heartwarming and humorous tale of self-discovery and friendship.
