Deaf Like Me Publisher: Gallaudet University Press

The heartbreak, love and anxieties of all parents of a handicapped child are simply and movingly expressed in this story of a family's desperate fight to teach their deaf daughter to speak so she will be considered "normal". The result is a moving story of how a small deaf girl breaks the chains of ignorance and prejudice that have held her for five years - to discover the world she cannot hear and to teach her family what love and being normal really means.
