Jessi's Secret Language (The Baby-Sitters Club #16 Netflix Edition) by Ann Martin tells the story of Jessi, who knows a secret language! She learned it from Matt Braddock, the newest charge of the Baby-Sitters Club (BSC).

Matt has been deaf since birth and uses sign language to communicate. As Jessi is Matt's baby-sitter, she has been learning and using sign language too. Soon, all the kids in Stoneybrook want to learn to sign, which keeps the Baby-sitters busy.
