? Why This Book is Wonderful for Kids:
Hummingbird follows twelve-year-old Olive, a spunky, indomitable girl who is tired of being treated as "fragile" just because she uses a wheelchair due to brittle bone disease. When she starts at a traditional school and hears town whispers about a magical, wish-granting hummingbird, she teams up with some unlikely allies to find it. This beautiful work of magical realism explores what it means to find true belonging, embrace your gifts, and discover the magic in everyday life.
It is an ideal read for young minds!
✨ Redefines Strength & Independence: Olive’s bold, witty, and sparkly personality proves that physical limitations don't define a person's capability for adventure. It offers a wonderfully empowering and authentic depiction of living with a disability.
✨ Fosters True Belonging & Friendship: The story highlights the universal childhood journey of stepping out of your comfort zone, overcoming the fear of not fitting in, and finding an authentic "pack" of friends who celebrate you exactly as you are.
✨ Explores Hope & Everyday Magic: While the search for a wish-granting bird drives the plot, the true heart of the book is about discovering resilience and realizing that our most vulnerable places can lead to the most wonderful strengths.
? How To Join:
Simply bring a copy of the book (or a tablet/e-reader) and your curiosity!
We can’t wait to read, dream, and discuss together! ✨
