Next door
(Book)
In this wordless picture book, a Deaf child and his mother set out on a walk through their neighborhood. When they return home, they visit the family in the apartment next door who are newcomers to the country. A friendship blooms between the boy and his new neighbor, a young Syrian girl. Although they speak different languages, ASL and Arabic, they find a point of connection without using their voices. This tender tale about communication, connection and breaking down barriers was inspired by the author's late sister, who was profoundly deaf, and is brought to life by Deaf illustrator Isaac Liang. At the heart of the story is a beautiful message about finding common ground, no matter our differences.
