NOTES

A sweet wordless story about a boy's unexpected encounters in his neighborhood. In this wordless picture book, a Deaf boy and his mother enjoy a walk through their community, greeting neighbors, spying a bird's nest in a tree, buying cookies at the grocery store. Later, they visit their new neighbors, a woman and her daughter, who are recent immigrants to the country. Although the girl is shy, and the two kids speak different languages - American Sign Language (ASL) and Arabic - they find a way to communicate and become fast friends. A celebration of the art of appreciating the world and the people around us, and finding common ground, no matter our differences
