Macy is a girl who’s having a tough time. The “For Sale” sign on her front lawn is constantly reminding her about her impending move—which will mean leaving her beloved home and garden behind, and joining a whole new family because her mom is remarrying. Plus, Macy’s best friend is mad at her, and there’s a huge school project due. When Macy’s mom volunteers her to help the old lady next door, it’s the last straw—Macy is deaf, and the old lady doesn’t even know how to sign. How could Macy and 86-year-old Iris possibly have anything in common–or even talk about it if they did? This is a warm, wonderful read about family and making connections. Ages 9 and up.
