Listen: an empowering children’s book

Listen: How Evelyn Glennie, a Deaf Girl, Changed Percussion - book cover

It was such a pleasure to collaborate with the wonderful children’s author Shannon Stocker and the superb illustrator Devon Holzwarth on Listen, a gorgeous and empowering children’s picture book biography about my early life.

This is a story of music.
Of obstacles.
Of strength and hard work.
Of all you can accomplish when you dream.

“No. You can’t,” people said.
But Evelyn knew she could. She had found her own way to listen.
