Recipient of Readers' Favorite 5 Star Review Mighty Mila by Katie Petruzziello was an inspiring, fast-paced, and well-written story... Not only is the story full of important lessons, but it is also filled with helpful details about Mila's cochlear implants... Reading this wonderful tale, I was immediately attracted to the main character, Mila, who was a ball of sunshine throughout the story. I admired how strong-willed she was when she wanted to prove something to her family. Children will surely enjoy and also learn a lot from Mila's adventures! - Trisha Dawn for Readers' Favorite Mighty Mila is much more than a storybook. Mila offers inspiration and determination as a life lesson all ages can embrace and appreciate. Mighty Mila is a wonderful resource for clinicians and teachers, especially those working with children. Lessons of acceptance, determination, can do attitude and knowing it's okay to ask for help are themes throughout the story. The colorful and whimsical illustrations bring this charming and joy filled read to life! - Kathy Rosenbaum, Speech Language Pathologist What Katie has provided at the end of the book to interact on a deeper level shows how important it is to her that ALL children can follow the rainbow to reach the pot of gold like Mila. The bar is set high and is attainable with whatever mighty power you have, even if it's knowing when to ask for help - Tara Gallagher, CCC-SLP/TSHH I am a teacher of the deaf and hard of hearing and I am CONSTANTLY searching for stories that represent my students. The subtle references to her cochlear implants are perfect and surrounded by a beautiful story about Mila proving that she is a big kid...something that all kids relate to! The writing is true to the mind of a child, the illustrations are beautiful and the mini follow up activities at the end of the book leave you wanting more! I am so excited that I get to add this to my classroom library! - Ashley Machovec, Teacher of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
