Emma and her brother are staying at their grandmother's house for a full week; she has packed her favorite stuffed toy and the recharger for her cochlear implant, but she is a little worried about feeling homesick. With her grandmother keeping her busy, and the help of a new deaf friend named Nick, the week flies by.
