The horse and the duck are up to their old tricks. Oh dear! Will they ever learn that mud sticks? Uh-Oh! Now they need help from someone who can dig... Who will be today's Farmyard Hero - the farmer, his dog or the pig? Another raucous Farmyard Heroes story, told in rhyming verse and packed full of 'learning to listen' sounds, brought to life by Faith Broomfield-Payne's enchanting illustrations of the cheerful farmyard crew. From the braying donkey (haw haw haw) to the cackling crow (caw caw caw), they're all there to witness the playful duck and the handsome horse getting themselves into a rather sticky situation...but who will come to the rescue and be declared today's Farmyard Hero? The story opens with the night animals and the day animals exchanging roles - as one lot falls asleep, the others awake...and so too does the boy farmer, who is back for his daily dose of farmyard fun. As you may recall from the first Farmyard Heroes story, "C.I. Quest", the farmer is deaf and has cochlear implants, which help him to hear. He loves to listen to all the farmyard sounds (from the hogs and horses to the hounds) and he's never happier than when he is surrounded by all his animal friends. While this book features a deaf character, it is not specifically about hearing loss; it is a delightful, humorous and inclusive story for all children to enjoy, whether or not they have hearing loss.
Having lived most of her life in the African wilderness with elephants literally on her doorstep, but now happily settled in the UK, Tanya Saunders is a writer, artist, lover of wild places and mother to twin daughters, one of whom is profoundly deaf and wears cochlear implants (her 'magic ears'). She believes that deaf children deserve the same opportunities in life as everyone else; it is not for us to set limits on what they can achieve but rather to give them the platform they need to learn, grow, and attain their goals as equals alongside their hearing peers. Tanya is a Parent Ambassador for Auditory Verbal UK (AVUK), an aspirational organization that teaches deaf children to listen and speak. Her writing is inspired by her own family's speech and language journey with AVUK, alongside numerous other professionals, friends and family members who, as a team, have made truly transformative contributions to her daughter's odyssey into the hearing and speaking world. Although not a professional therapist herself, as a 'parent practitioner' of auditory verbal therapy traveling this road alongside her daughter, Tanya's personal experience and observations can provide helpful insights for other families on the same path. Her vibrantly illustrated stories encourage deaf children to reach for the stars and reassure them that, while it may not be easy, all the hard work involved in learning to listen and speak will be worth it in the end. www.avidlanguage.com/author-tanyasaunders
