Aprašymas

A young girl prepares for cochlear implant surgery

When Bryn was four, she could hear birds chirping in the tall trees outside her house. But at seven, she can only hear those chirps in her left ear. Her right ear has gone silent. A hearing aid helps, but it isn't always perfect.

So, when Bryn learns about an operation called a cochlear implant that would improve her hearing, she jumps at the opportunity. Surgery can be scary, but her parents, doctors, and nurses help ease her anxieties. And with the help of her lucky rainbow elastic, hugs from her parents, and her own excitement, Bryn's bravery shines through her fears. She can't wait to hear the birds chirping and her mother singing in her right ear again.

This positive, evocative story gently uses a child's perspective to capture the experience of going to the hospital to have cochlear implant surgery, and all the emotions that go along with it.
