Illustrated by
Paul Brewer.
Robert Dorfman works on a school assignment; plays with his best friend, Paul; and negotiates getting along with classmates. When new girl Taylor, who is hearing impaired, comes to town, Robert and Paul try to figure out what it's like not to hear. This story isn't a handbook on deafness but a continuation of Robert's good-natured journey toward understanding those around him.
