<strong>Jelly is as surprised as anyone when he decides that he’s going to win the annual sixth grade speech contest.</strong>

</p><p>Just like that, Joe Alton Miles, better known as Jelly (because his initials are J.A.M. and his best friend’s are P.B.), is faced with overcoming not only his terror of being in the spotlight, but also the wrath of smart, popular Victoria, who believes that the prize (like all prizes) is rightfully hers. At first, Jelly only cares about winning the awesome prize (a new tablet), but as Victoria escalates her campaign against him, Jelly begins to realize that it’s not only the prize that’s at stake, but also his reputation, his self-respect and the friendship he values most. Jelly must dig deep inside himself to find out if he’s strong enough to stand up to Victoria and show everyone what he’s really capable of.</p><p>Hilariously funny and just as poignant, <em>Speechless</em>is about finding out who your friends are, giving back, standing up to bullying and finding your own unique voice.</p>
