Résumé
Addy has worn hearing aids for as long as she can remember, and while her mother tells her this makes her special, now that Addy's in grade six, she wants to be special for what she does. First Addy joins… the school running club to keep her best friend Lucy company, and discovers she is a gifted runner. Then Addy gets paired on a school project with Sierra, a smart, self-assured new classmate who wears a cochlear implant. Addy is surprised to discover hearing loss is all they have in common – and that a shared disability is not enough of a foundation for a friendship. Grades 5-8. 2011.
