Do you know what selective mutism is? It’s an anxiety disorder where someone who can speak normally is unable to talk in certain situations, like at school. Carla no habla is a graphic novel about 14-year-old Carla, who struggles to speak after moving to a new school. Isolated and anxious, her world begins to change when a kind classmate reaches out. Through this new friendship, Carla slowly starts to connect and regain confidence. Blending Ecuadorian culture with themes of inclusion and friendship, the story shows how one connection can make a big difference.
