Synopsis

Gold Medal Winner for Children’s Fiction Fables
Silver Medal Winner for Children’s Fiction Animals


In a fantasy world, a powerful magician commands the winds to plow his fields, sow the seeds, water the furrows and harvest the crops.

But those winds blow and buffet the animals living on the ground, so they hold a meeting. None of them can decide what to do until a tiny ant named Amanda stands up and says, “I’ll stop the winds.”

The other animals laugh and say she’s too small and has no teeth or claws. What does she have to stand up to the power of a magician they ask?

Amanda just smiles. “I have the best thing of all, my wits.”

A modern fable, The Ant and the Magician demonstrates how everyone can stand up and make a difference, no matter their size or popularity.

"A bright, breezy, and vibrantly illustrated tale of brains over brawn." - Kirkus Reviews
