Summary

"In this fresh retelling of <i>The Little Hummingbird</i>, a disastrous fire threatens the Great Forest, and one heroic hummingbird must inspire all the animals to work together to save their home. Lyrically told by Leah Henderson and vividly illustrated by Magaly Morales, this fable about hope and courage demonstrates how a community can unite to overcome adversity, no matter how insurmountable the odds may seem. The tale has been told around the world in many forms and across many cultures over time and is believed to have originated among the indigenous Quechua people of modern-day Ecuador. <i>The Courage of the Little Hummingbird</i> is a reminder that no challenge is too great, and that even the smallest of us can make a world of difference." --Book jacket
