Xavier wishes his small voice was bigger and the anxious feeling he gets when trying to make friends was smaller. He makes many attempts to be louder, but he still isn't able to connect with any of his classmates. As Xavier withdraws into the world of his sketchbook, he wonders will he ever be able to make friends with such a small voice?

'This narrative will speak to many young people grappling with anxiety as Franklin creates a safe environment for introspection and growth...An encouraging story for those who struggle to be heard.' Kirkus Reviews
