Rowena Batts has just shifted school and the reason why is that the school she was at just got shut down it was a special school as she called it. She can not speak because she was born with bits of her throat missing but other than that she is a normal girl who can write, draw,point, nod, shake her head, and screw up her nose.
She has a normal dad she lives with. She says that he is stopping her from being popular because of his weird behaviour. But she thinks that he is the best. he is an apple farmer in Australia.
This book is set in Australia where her dad is a apple farmer and she also goes to a normal school now instead of her special school.
When she goes to her new school she hands out this letter that her and her dad spent most of the night writing. some kids in her new class smiled some laughed in a nice way and some nudged and gave her smirky looks she got teased so much she went and locked her self in a janitors closet.
The main characters are her (Rowena Batts) her dad (you don't really find out his name she just calls him dad, her teacher (Ms. Dunning) and that is the main characters but there are a lot or minor roles like the guy (Darryn Pecks) in her class and Rowena's new friend(Amanda Cosgrove.)
My opinion of this book is that it is kind of sad because i felt a little bit sorry for the girl but the thing is that it did not stop her from getting on with her life. which showed that she did not care about what people thought and she just made that most of every second.
