Hey SFs!
Well, today is a VERY big day at my house… because my wife, Cece, has a brand new book!
It’s called EL DEAFO!
It’s a graphic novel about how she lost most of her hearing and what happened after that… it’s amazing and I think you guys will really like it!
You know a little bit of Cece’s story already, because she inspired the character of Caroline in OY. (Cece’s middle name is Caroline.) Just like Caroline, she can read lips like a ninja, hates it when people talk to her like she’s dumb and is really awesome. (and cute!) She even tells her own version of the broken pencil story!
A big part of the book is the HUGE hearing aid she had to wear to school:
But even though it looked weird, it gave her secret powers… because she could hear her teacher anywhere in the school even in the BATHROOM:
SO…. to celebrate, we’re going to have an El Deafo showcase! Fold you own version of El Deafo — which is a rabbit version of Cece — and submit it with the tagline EL DEAFO BY (SF NAME HERE).
You can invent your own fold or use my old bunny fold:
Don’t delay… I’d like to post it soon.
If you have a comment or question about the book or the showcase (or anything else) please use the NEW Talk to Tom page.
