Reading the chapter book The Silent One

We love reading in room 18. We especially enjoy listening to matua and relaxing while he reads the story "The Silent One". It is about a young island boy who is mistreated by his home people in his village. As the title states, he is unable to hear and was born death, but has a heart of gold and loves spending time with his friend the great white turtle. Many adventures are to follow. Ask your child about the story!
