A mom’s favorite children’s book

Hello,
I love children’s books not just for my children but for my own pleasure!
My favorite book for children read this year is “Youngen Finds Her Song” by Maria J. Andrade.
It is about a bird’s journey taken with her owl friend. My children 8-12 could easily relate to the main character, a female bird named “Youngen” who starts out with very little self confidence but not only finds her unique song and self respect but in the process she also discovers the power and majesty in nature! A great book about caring,earth stewardship and hope. It teaches kids about birds,insects,and a strange species, “Humans”- all with empathy and humor.

I shared it with my children’s teachers and they said the kids loved
the book and its accompanying CD with the voices of the story’s characters, music
and sound effects.
