Jubilee

Newbery Honorâ€“winning author Patricia Reilly Giff writes a tender, timeless story about a girl who stopped speaking long ago, and how she finds her way back to her voice. For fans of Listening for Lucca, Fish in a Tree, The Rules, and Mockingbird.
Â
Judith lives with her beloved aunt Cora and her faithful Dog on a beautiful island. Years ago, when her mother left, Judith stopped talking. Now she communicates entirely through gestures and taps, and by drawing cartoons, speaking only when sheâ€™s aloneâ€”or with Dog.
Â
This year, Judith faces a big changeâ€”leaving her small, special classroom for a regular fifth-grade class. She likes her new teacher, and finds a maybe-friend in a boy named Mason. But Jubileeâ€™s wandering feet wonâ€™t stop until they find her mother. And now she discovers that her mother has moved back to the mainland, nearby. If Jubilee finds her, will her motherâ€™s love be what she needs to speak again?
Â
Judithâ€™s cartoons, sprinkled throughout, add lightness and humor.
