I'm Not Stupid, I Have Hearing Loss

---

 In this honest, heartfelt memoir about growing up with hearing loss, author Tracy L. Markley shares her experiences with disability, disadvantage, and the drive that helped her to keep going.

As a child, Tracy struggled with both her education and her peers. Her reasons for having a tough time in school had everything to do with how the brain is affected by impaired hearing. From basic comprehension in the classroom to bullying on the playground, every day was a challenge that Tracy had to overcome.

I’m Not Stupid—I Have Hearing Loss is a deep dive into the science and social stigma of this disability. Tracy shares stories of what she endured, the causes of lower self-esteem that she harbored as a result, and ways to beat the obstacles she encountered. Now, Tracy demonstrates the benefits of working hard to improve your life by embracing who you are and what you can accomplish when you get the support you need.

In this book parents, teachers, and those without hearing loss will also gain an understanding into the hearing loss world.
