Decibella is so loud, she's hurting ears, startling wait staff, disrupting classmates, and annoying moviegoers. She doesn't realize different environments and situations sometimes demand a softer, quieter voice. That is until a caring teacher introduces her to the silly-sounding word Slurpadoodleand the five volumes of voice (Whisper, 6-inch, Table Talk, Strong Speaker, and Outside). With a little practice, patience, and persistence, can Decibella become a voice volume expert? Or will her volume be permanently stuck on shout? A special page written specifically for parents and educators offers insightful and practical strategies to help children understand when and how to have a proper voice volume. Fans of the original story will find more inclusive, empathetic, and empowering dialogue and situations in this revised second edition!
