When one sister is born unable to talk, walk, or use her hands the way others do, her younger sister has questions.
Why is she different?
What does she think?
Can she understand me?
In "Your Sister Talks With Her Eyes," readers discover that even though the older sister cannot speak with her mouth, her eyes tell a beautiful story. They say "I love mac and cheese." They ask "Wanna go for a swing?" And most of all, they say "I love you."
Through warm, relatable moments, this heartfelt picture book helps children understand disability, empathy, and the powerful bond between siblings. Inspired by a real family's journey raising a chid with Rett syndrome, it offers reassurance to siblings navigating difference, encouragement to families raising children with special needs, a conversation-starter for educators, and an invitation for every reader to listen beyond words.
A touching reminder that every child has a voice, even if it isn't spoken out loud.
