So true!
Right?!
Such a nice quote!!!
I thought so too! 😄
Now that I think about it, that is so true!!
It really is!
Here's to another great book I just read! Cyclone by Doreen Cronin is amazing! Twelve-year-old Nora's family vacation to Coney Island to ride the world-famous cyclone rollercoaster was supposed to be the best part of her summer. Instead, it ends in tragedy when her 13-year-old cousin, Riley, has a stroke moments after they get off the ride. After Riley is rushed to the hospital and the family learns about her undiagnosed heart condition, Nora immediately feels guilty for blackmailing Riley into riding the rollercoaster and thinks it's her fault that Riley's in a coma. As Riley slowly begins to regain her verbal and motor skills, Nora and her family start to learn how to support each other as well as Riley on her journey to recovery. I would definitely recommend this to pretty much anyone out there!
That sounds really interesting!
Ohhh, that's sounds very remarkable book! Thanks for recommending this to us!
Really? That is super interesting, thank you so much for sharing this!!
Heyyyy there, everyone!!! I just started reading new book which about D/deaf people "Give me a Sign" It's about 17-years-old girl, Lilah who feels not "deaf enough" to fully identify herself as a Deaf person. She used to be a camper at her old camp, Gray Wolf but stopped at 8th grade then basically became a Junior counselor and met few other deaf people plus one hearing girl. It's pretty good so far and I'll recommend this book if you are about 14+
I'll make sure to read it one day!!!
That sounds really neat, I'll have to check it out sometime!
Yeah, it is! And hope that you would enjoy this book! 🤠

Do you use ASL? I'm not deaf, but my sister is, so I am pretty fluent in ASL!
