Celebrate the power of believing in yourself with this multi-award winning, heartwarming and hilarious tale of a spunky deaf girl who's determined to prove she can be a big kid!

Mila may be a kid, but she can act pretty grown up...at least that's what she thinks. The trouble is, Mila's parents still treat her like she's little, so she's decided to prove once and for all that she can do things "all on her own!" But when it turns out that being a big kid isn't as easy as she thought, will Mila admit defeat, or will she find a way to prove just how big and mighty she really is?

Readers of all ages will love Mila's spitfire personality and imaginative approach to overcoming obstacles, and will cheer her on as she uses her creativity, her willpower, and even her new cochlear implant hearing devices to face down challenges.

¿ Representation & empowerment: A book that provides much needed representation for deaf/hard of hearing children through a fun story portraying a deaf main character as a "regular kid", where her hearing loss is NOT the focus of the story.

¿ Problem solving & perseverance: A great way to encourage creative thinking and show children that they can achieve anything they set their mind and hearts to-even if that sometimes means asking for help from others.
