This is a fun, fast-paced mystery filled with suspense, humour and friendship but also something more.This story stands out because:

– It has been specially developed to be inclusive for children with hearing impairments– Sign language is naturally woven into the story and illustrations– One of the main characters is deaf, and inclusion is seamlessly integrated into the plot– Created in collaboration with experts in accessibility, and co-written by a sign language storyteller
