"Regarding ­ Let’s Hear It For Amigal, I really enjoyed and appreciated it. Amigal is a delightful child whose attitude about life and not letting even a morsel of it pass her by, is totally endearing. Your message is optimistic and encouraging, and the illustrations are enchanting. And, as we established at the conference, from one dog lover to another, I loved that having Lucy and Buster play a prominent supportive role especially as she is recovering from the CI surgery. I am a big proponent of celebrating differences and Amigal’s appreciation of the diversity among her friends presents an ideal model for both parents and children. I have already recommended the book parents and will continue to do so. Congratulations and continued success."

"Let’s Hear It For Wendy Kupfer! An avid and outspoken supporter of the deaf and hard of hearing community, Wendy’s most recent venture into the life of Almigal is yet another example of her desire to bring compassion and awareness to the number one birth defect that impacts 12,000 children in the United States a year. The spunky and spirited voice of Almigal shines through the pages and highlights the impact that cochlear implant technology can have in helping these children hear every single sound in the whole entire universe! More so, Let’s Hear It for Almigal is a wonderful reminder to all that what makes us different is actually what makes us truly unique."

"Let’s Hear It For Almigal by Wendy Kupfer and illustrated by Tammie Lyon is a wonderful book that accurately helps young children to understand the special nature of being deaf. It is very supportive of cochlear implantation and also of American Sign Language. Most of all it is a book of acceptance and understanding for all the differences that makes a person special.  Congratulations to Wendy and Tammie and to all of us who care for children."
