Listening for Angus

Russel is waiting for his brother, Angus, and the sounds around him become clues to who might be approaching. As a visually impaired child, he listens closely and answers calls from strangers, who become friends. That pattern of listening and connection shapes the story, before a ringing sound suggests Angus may need help. The book centers a young child’s experience of visual impairment while linking attention to sound with openness toward others. A QR code in the book provides access to a recording of the narrated story.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in stories about friendship and welcoming others.
  • Families looking for a picture-book story featuring a visually impaired child.
  • Listeners who would enjoy accessing a narrated-story recording through a QR code.

Book overview

A touching portrayal of a young visually impaired boy who opens his heart to others. Knock! Knock! Choo! Choo! Vroom! Vroom! As Russel awaits a visit from his brother, with every sound he wonders: Is Angus here? No, not yet. But with his ears -- and his heart -- wide open, Russel responds to the calls of a series of strangers who become his friends. Good thing because... Ting-a-ling! Ting-a-ling! Did you hear that? It sounds like Angus needs to be rescued! A recording of the narrated story can be accessed with a QR code printed in the book.
