Sample Book Insights:
#1 Our family lived at the school because our parents worked there. Our mother taught nursery school, and our father was the director of child care. They knew every inch of Lexington, and they seemed to have a deep connection with it.
#2 My family lived at the school for seven years, from when I was a baby until I graduated high school. I grew up knowing only two types of people: deaf or hearing. I was used to cultural differences, even within my own family.
#3 My fatherâs family is from Lexington, and I have many memories of going to events there as a child. The last prolonged moments by the door grew out of a hunger for connection.
#4 I grew up thinking that I was deaf, and that Lexington School for the Deaf was my home. I took it for granted that Lexington was a special place, set apart from what lay beyond.
