I’ve heard of El Deafo by Cece Bell often; it’s on almost every list of own voices disability books. I thought it was a children’s picture book, but it’s more of a middle-grade graphic novel. It follows anthropomorphic bunny child Cece as she adjusts to losing her hearing and wearing hearing aids. It was overall a good and cute read and I think it showed issues like well-meaning but offensive people very well. It was a very realistic story (probably because it’s based on the author’s real life). The only issues I had with it were that it seemed to dismiss disability, especially in the author’s note at the end. Disability is not a bad thing and disability activists are why we have the rights we have today. I would still recommend reading it, though with a critical eye.
