4.0

The metaphors for struggling with speech was absolutely beautiful and added a soft, lyrical quality to this gentle example of invisible disability for young readers.

The illustrations were beautiful and the art style felt so fluid and water colour in style, added more weight to the title (which was so clever).

A lovely book, showing the differences we as people have and learning to embrace them.
