you don’t know everything, jilly p.! - alex gino - children’s fiction - a hearing white girl who has a deaf sister and her messy friendship with a Black Deaf boy.
give me a SIGN - anna sortino- ya fiction - main character has hereditary progressive hearing loss, and is a counselor at a deaf summer camp where she improves her asl and engages more with the wider Deaf community.
you’re welcome, universe - whitney gardner - ya fiction - a Deaf of Deaf high schooler is expelled from her private school for graffiti and starts mainstream school; outside of school, she is engaged in a graffiti battle all over town with a mysterious fellow artist who keep ruining her pieces.
the silence between us - alison gervais - ya fiction - main character is late deafened; after moving states, she attends mainstream school for the first time since losing her hearing, where she faces a lack of accessibility and the ignorance of her classmates.
the words in my hands - asphyxia - ya fiction - deaf raised-oral main character who meets a coda and begins to learn auslan, involve herself in the Deaf community, and participate in community activism.
true biz - sara novic - adult fiction - follows the community at a deaf institution. main characters include the CODA headmistress, a fourth-generation Deaf student whose popularity somewhat stems from being from a deaf “legacy” family, and a language-deprived student who failed out of mainstream school.
