Meet Sophie
Sophie couldn't spell her own name until she was six. But she's not stupid.
No, she's just uses words differently from you and me. She's fourteen now and she has a story to tell.
But some things are hard to talk about. Even to your best friend. And if you bottle them up you might burst. So here is Sophie's story.
Told the only way she dares tell it. In her own secret language.
