In this engaging autobiography, author Cece Bell uses a graphic novel format to describe life as a hearing-impaired child. After a childhood illness damages her hearing, Cece must adapt to many new challenges. Although embarrassed by her hearing aid, Cece learns that the new device she wears at school gives her the amazing ability to hear her teachers wherever they are! Inspired by this new ability, she creates an alter-ego for herself, "El Deafo".
This Newbery Honor book is an inspiring autobiography about the childhood of an award-winning author. I love how Cece Bel uses a graphic novel format to tell her story, the illustrations are very entertaining. This is an amazing book and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, inspiring story!
