Jasper is a puppy that is deaf. Despite his moulds having bones on them, he does not like his hearing aids... You wouldn't believe where he hides them and what he does to avoid wearing them! Then one day, he gives himself a fright by rushing headlong into the street. Surrounded by angry drivers and honking car horns (which he can't hear because he's buried his hearing aids in the garden!), he is rescued by Mummy and decides that, after all, his life is more fun - and safer - with his hearing aids on!
This gently humorous story encourages children who are deaf or hard of hearing to think about their own assistive hearing devices (cochlear implants or hearing aids), to consider how these devices help them in everyday life and to understand why it's important to take good care of them.
