Book Review
I know this is a children’s book, but I enjoyed reading it. The visual graphics and simple language used in this book are easy to understand by any kid. As a hearing aid wearer, I could understand the characters in the book and the acceptance of hearing assistive devices. It is fictional but so amazing. I was wrapped up in this little book and read the pages under 2 minutes!
I wholeheartedly recommend this book for everyone irrespective of their hearing ability. It is informative in a fun and respectful way. I appreciate the author for putting such a wonderful piece of a beautiful story. I felt happy reading it, and I am sure other parents and kids who use assistive devices would love this book.the characters were easily relatable. Another reason why this book is great is because it was written by a pediatric audiologist. How cute is that!
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are mine.
