3.0 out of 5 stars My Hearing Loss and Me - Book Review, September 29, 2005

This review is from: My Hearing Loss and Me: We Get Along Most of the Time (Paperback)

The book has a focus on cochlear implants which I did not understand when I bought it. It discusses what the child experiences from a childs point of view. The upside to that is that my son, who is getting hearing aids, got to learn more about some of the kids he knows now with cochlear implants. I rated it lower because of the price. I think it cost me around $21 so I was expecting something more than a 8 x 11 paperback book. All in all if I had a child getting cochlear implants I would definately purchase it again.

This review is from: My Hearing Loss and Me: We Get Along Most of the Time (Paperback)

I found this book to be very well written and illustrated. It gives you a glimpse into the world of those with hearing loss, in this instance a child's daily struggles. It has helped me to better understand the challenges my granddaughter may face and also to ask more questions so I can help her. It is a book that can help open up the lines of communication between parent and child. It would also be a perfect book for schools, with mainstream deaf children, to purchase. It would be a very beneficial book for both teachers and pupils to read. I cannot say enough good things about this book......
