Stephen's Reviews > Speechless: A Graphic Novel

This was a much different book than I thought it would be, but man did I enjoy it! It deals with selective mutism (can only speak at different times) and for me it was just eye opening an also entertaining. My daughters read it first and though they did not say anything about it, I decided I wanted to give it a try. This is from Eisner Award-winning author Aron Nels Steinke (who won the Eisner which is like the Oscar's for the comic book industry). Aron is known in our household for Mr. Wolf's Class and holds a special place as that series was beloved before I (or any of my family) did reviews. This is a great book in many ways and can be enjoyed by people of all ages! You will go thru some serious emotional moments throughout this graphic novel. It is also a pretty thick one going over 250 pages! This book I believe makes to sympathize with so many characters and pulls you into the story. Great stuff!
