Description
Shahaab's silence lasted for four years. His family thought it was no cause for concern, but he felt like an outcast. As he grew older, Shahaab began to understand the hurtful words of those around him. His father's love seemed concentrated on his older brother and younger sister, leaving Shahaab feeling like a disappointment. He started to lash out, taking childish revenge on those who had wronged him. But one person saw beyond his anger - his maternal grandmother. She offered him kindness and understanding, and for the first time in years, Shahaab felt heard. As their bond grew, Shahaab began to find his voice. This heart-wrenching story is based on a true account of a boy's journey towards self-discovery and acceptance.
