Arealle Erickson: This is a VERY cute story of inclusion and growth. I read it to my two little girls and they loved guessing what the next thing Mila was going to try to do next.
As a mom of three girls, this is exactly what it's like watching them grow from toddlers to little girls.

Lauren: My son liked this book. A great book to show that you can do anything if you put your mind to it no matter the obstacles.

Tony: One thing I love about this book is that it’s not entirely about wearing cochlear implants. I teach kids who are deaf and hard of hearing and I love that this book is about her wanting to be a big kid, and the fact that she has cochlear implants is not the main part of the story. I love to buy books that have kids wearing hearing technology and it’s hard to find books that are not just about hearing loss. The pictures are great and I love the guide at the end of the book that gives you cues on how to use it for auditory instruction and language development. I wish there was more books like this one!

Deanie Humphrys-Dunne: "Mighty Mila" is an educational and endearing story of a little girl named Mila who used Cochlear Implants to help her hear. She is grateful that this new technology can help her hear well. Mila decides she wants to become more independent. For example She's very proud she can get the toothpaste out of the tube all by herself. But that's not all. She learns to dress herself and even comes up with a creative solution when she has trouble tying her shoes. She shows a great deal of spunk and determination in the story. Her story can be a great example to other children with similar challenges. The illustrations are very cute, although the print is difficult to read in places, particularly in the back of the book.But I do think the questions and games at the back of the book will help children learn to observe things and to remember what happened in the book. Also, I'm pleased the book discusses hearing impairment and explains it so children can understand what the obstacles a hearing impaired child faces. The book may prevent bullying of a child with a hearing problem. I recommend the story.

Mansi Mittal: Mighty mila is a very cute book about a girl with Cochlear Implants. I love the way Mila shows she is no less than others and happy being herself. There are so many sounds to read that will definitely help the kids that are learning to talk. Also, the activities at the end are added bonus and would definitely excite children even more.
It’s good for 2-5 years old child so I would have to keep it for a while before my girl gets her hand on this.

Teacher: I thoroughly enjoyed reading this with my grandson. It shows a child with hearing impairment learning to use cochlear implants to gain confidence and independence. The story is pitched just right with humour and sensitivity. The illustrations are great and bring the story to life. I would highly recommend this book.

raggyrat: Mila is great. I’ve just read this book before I read it with my girls and it’s got wonderful illustrations and a positive text in present tense. So we get to discover Mila’s day along with her.
This book has a really nice feel to it, and, although hearing loss and implants are a big part of the main character’s life, it’s actually a story about being independent, and what that looks like.
I liked the way the family is described as smiling, as visual is always important to a deaf person. I love the way that sounds are included in the story too.
My experience is with British Sign Language and deaf culture but I would still recommend this charming book.
