G.P. Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers
Lilah lives in a hearing world, with hearing parents and friends, attending a mainstream school. Lilah is hard of hearing, but she isn’t comfortable claiming deafness as part of her identity. When the opportunity arises to return to her beloved childhood Deaf and blind camp as a junior counselor, Lilah jumps at the chance to get away from home and brush up on her ASL. The summer brings more than ASL growth as Lilah learns to navigate friendship, has a swoony first romance, and journeys toward comfort in her own identity.
