Hinata no Tenohira

Fumiko, a deaf girl who lost her family in an air raid, is turned away by her relatives and drifts from place to place until she ends up with the Natsume family, who are neither relatives nor acquaintances. Fumiko tries her best to be useful, fearing she'll be kicked out again if she's not, but her body can't keep up... This is a coming-of-age story about a deaf girl who finds a new family and survives wartime. (Source: Kodansha, translated)
