The Sound of All Things
Myron Uhlberg
A hearing boy whose parents are deaf describes the sounds of experiences they share. During a family outing to Coney Island in 1930s Brooklyn, his father asks what the roller coaster and ocean waves sound like. The boy first calls the waves loud, then searches for a fuller comparison, eventually finding help in a book of ocean poems. He communicates with his parents in sign language as the story follows their warm family relationship.
