[Cece's actual Phonic Ear from her childhood]
[Something you may not think about ... signings for an author with a hearing impairment require just a bit more time. Cece is really conscientious about asking people to write out their name first (I carry around a Post-It note with my name already on it) because she can't hear you spelling it out loud while she's writing/signing.]
[I've been very forward about asking illustrators to sketch in my illustrators' book, and Cece was kind enough to draw Sock Monkey for me.]
my father invented the phonic ear
