Description: Susie suddenly stops talking after struggling with a speech difficulty and feeling isolated by her peers. Her new friend, Jahan, who is warm and supportive despite his own clumsiness, helps her find the courage to express herself again. Through patience and friendship, Susie gradually overcomes her fears and regains her voice, culminating in a confident school presentation. This story sensitively explores themes of communication challenges, bullying, and the power of kindness. It encourages children to embrace differences and shows how encouragement can help overcome personal obstacles.
