Review
This was an adorable book that I think many parents could read to their children - not only as another heartwarming story, but also to show that Deaf children are simply kids who can't hear - they can do everything else just find. 
I think that this will be a great story to gently introduce disability awareness, and to normalize that there are simply differently abled bodies! In this case, Mickey has Aqua Cochlear implants, and I think that this story can help introduce medical assistive devices to children - and to also normalize that some people need tools and devices to help them access the world that wasn't made for them. 

Overall I think that this is a great story and I'll be happy to read more about Mickey in the future!
