Reggie was a normal boy, but he had been born deaf. He was well known to everyone in town, and they were all very fond of him. Unfortunately, though, he always seemed to end up being treated differently from everyone else. Children worried that they would hurt him, and that may be because he wouldn't hear the ball being hit in his direction. Adults acted like he couldn't understand them, as though he was some kind of baby.

Reggie didn't like this. But the person who disliked it the most was his friend Michael, who determined one day that things had to change. Michael's father was the town's mayor, and Michael finally convinced him that this year, in honor of Reggie, they should offer one day of the festival to the deaf. During that whole day everyone in town would have to wear earplugs.

People liked the idea, because everyone loved Reggie. The day became known as The Day of Silence, and when it arrived, everyone stuck plugs in their ears, in a spirit of great fun. That morning was filled with practical jokes and laughter. But, as the hours passed, people became more and more aware of how difficult life was when you couldn't hear anything.
