| | Synopsis
|
". . . when [Jilly's] sister, Emma, is born deaf, she realizes .
. . the world is going to treat Jilly, who is white and hearing,
differently from Emma, just as it will treat them both differently
from their Black cousins. A big fantasy reader, Jilly makes a
connection online with another fantasy fan, Derek, who is a Deaf,
Black ASL user. She goes to Derek for help with Emma but doesn't
always know the best way or time to ask for it. As she and Derek meet
in person, have some really fun conversations, and become friends,
Jilly makes some mistakes . . . but comes to understand that it's up
to her, not Derek to figure out how to do better next
time—especially when she wants to be there for Derek the most.
Within a world where kids like Derek and Emma aren't assured the same
freedom or safety as kids like Jilly, Jilly is starting to learn all
the things she doesn't know—and by doing that, she's also working to
discover how to support her family and her friends"—Provided by
