Thirteen-year-old Joey Willis doesn't really have anyone she can talk to. She is deaf, most people's lips are too hard to read, and her mother won't let her learn sign language. So she is happy to meet some remarkable neighbors: Charlie, a scientist whose parents were deaf, and Sukari, a young chimpanzee whom he's teaching to sign. Then Charlie dies-and leaves Sukari's fate in Joey's hands. Afterword. Chart of the ASL alphabet. Winner of the 2008 Schneider Family Award.
