An Illustrated Novel
ALIBRAM Select Library
Her parents didn't want her. Now she carries her mom's ashes in a plush knapsack.
And everywhere she goes, she's tangled up in stories.
Born deaf and on the spectrum,
it's a challenge not to be eccentric.
Aware her parents didn't want her,
it's a struggle not to give in
to emptiness...
Alive and full of fight,
It's impossible NOT to be
FEROCIOUS!
