Synopsis

The Courage of the Little Hummingbird is a beautiful picture book based on a moving animal fable about heroism, hope, and community, from award-winning creators Leah Henderson and Magaly Morales.

When a disastrous fire threatens the Great Forest, the hummingbird must inspire all the animals to work together to save their homes.

Lyrically told by Leah Henderson and vividly illustrated by Magaly Morales, this tale of bravery against seemingly insurmountable odds and a community working together to overcome adversity is a reminder that no challenge is too great, and that even the smallest of us can make a world of difference.

"This call to action is for the animals and for anyone who fears the insignificance of their efforts," Kirkus said in a starred review. "It's a powerful message, made accessible and engaging through both Henderson's writing and Morales' vibrant, vividly textured illustrations."

Includes an author's note, as well as information on the origins of the folktale and facts about hummingbirds

Across oceans, lands, and skies
In whispers, shouts, and in many different languages
The story of the little hummingbird of the Great Forest can always be heard
