El Deafo by Cece Bell

Cece has this amazing super power that no one knows about.  She can hear things that no one else can dream of and she doesn't tell anyone about it but when she meets a cute guy she decides to reveal her secret.  Was this a big mistake?  Cece was a normal child until she became very ill and looses her hearing.  We get to see the world of a deaf child and how she deals with going to school trying to fit in with the other students.  I thought this was an excellent story and that it was written in an graphic novel form was perfect for this story.  Highly recommend.
