I found what I was looking for. Gina’s thoughts, feelings & experiences are relatable to me. I was looking for fiction books featuring characters with selective mutism/elective mutism. This is the first time it’s been represented correctly. Her dad believes she’s refusing to talk, but she is really just highly anxious. He thinks she needs to be forced to talk & other kids think she is stupid. It was the same for me.
