    About this audiobook

    Alex Gino, the Lambda Literary Award-winning author of Melissa, is back with another sensitive tale based on increasingly relevant social justice issues.

    Jilly thinks she's figured out how life works. But when her sister, Emma, is born deaf, she realizes how much she still has to learn. The world is going to treat Jilly, who is white and hearing, differently from Emma,just as it will treat them both differently from their Black cousins.A big fantasy reader, Jilly makes a connection online withanother fantasy fan, Derek, who is a Deaf, Black ASL user. She goes to Derek for help with Emma but doesn't always know the best way or time to ask for it.As she and Derek meet in person, have some really fun conversations, and become friends, Jilly makes some mistakes . . . but comes to understand that it's up to her, not Derek to figure out how to do better next time--especially when she wants to be there for Derek the most. Within a world where kids like Derek and Emma aren't assured the same freedom or safety as kids like Jilly, Jilly is starting to learn all the things she doesn't know--and by doing that, she's also working to discover how to support her family and her friends. With You Don't Know Everything, Jilly P!, award-winning author Alex Gino uses their trademark humor, heart, and humanity to show readers how being open todifference can make you a better person, and how being open to change can make you change in the best possible ways.

      The Letterbox

      I’m going into eighth grade and I have been the new kid at school eight times. I basically think of myself as a nomad at this point. I’m 99 percent introverted, so in addition to not making friends easily I tend to not talk to them very much anyway.

    • 5/5
      Great middle grade, ideal for starting conversations about racism and ableism with the younger ones
    • 4/5
      Precioso y necesario. Alex Gino siempre me sorprende con sus historias.
    • 5/5
      This book is powerful. It takes a lot for a middle grade book to make me cry and this one had me in tears more than once. I highly recommend that everyone read this. The explanation of the acronyms got a little repetitive in the audiobook but I’m sure on paper that wouldn’t be a problem. Even with that this book is deserving of more than 5 stars.
