Balancing Act
Virginia M. Scott
"Every page of this book, written in the first person from Beth's point of view, has the reader walking beside her."
Hannah Merker, Newswaves
Teachers and parents will welcome this book as a first of its kind. Affordable for class sets, Balancing Act is an excellent whole language resource, presenting the fast moving, involving story of a 15-year-old girl with a significant balance impairment coupled with hearing loss. Young adults will be intrigued by the Egyptian settings and suspenseful climax, and most will readily identify with family relationships and social issues as they relate to a character who just happens not to hear normally or walk right. Written by the author of Belonging, the novel rings with authenticity, as it should, since Virginia M. Scott lost her hearing as a teenager and is balance-impaired. Balancing Act is a life-affirming look at the need to accept and to be accepted that deserves a niche on junior and high school library shelves, in the young adult section of the public library, and in classrooms everywhere.
