| Summary, etc |
Rafa is a chatterbox who talks non-stop about everything, especially his excitement for starting big school—he babbles all the way there on the big day. But once he arrives, the words dry up; he’s not sad, he loves his new friends, building blocks, and drawing, yet he just can’t speak a peep. Join Rafa as he navigates his quiet first day, until something special finally brings his voice bursting back. |
