Addy has worn
hearing aids for as long as she can remember. Her mother tells her this makes her special, but now that Addy's in grade six, she wants to be special for something she's done. When Addy joins the school running club to keep her best friend, Lucy, company, she discovers she is a gifted runner. Lucy isn't, which is problematic. Further troubles surface when Addy gets paired on a school project with Sierra, a smart, self-assured new classmate who wears a cochlear implant. But is a shared disability enough of a foundation for a friendship? True friends support each other, even if they have different passions and dreams. In the end, Addy discovers she has the power to choose how people will see her, and she does.
