Description
Book SynopsisYoung readers will identify with a nervous but determined hummingbird in this strikingly illustrated, powerful message about overcoming fear and never giving up!
Trade ReviewSoar is a great story that teaches youngsters about hummingbirds, but also about the importance of trying to overcome our fears. The title exemplifies Ramone’s feelings once he tries to overcome his fears; the lilting tone of the rhyming verse makes the reader feel like soaring, too. A simple story but with an important message.—Reviewed by Emily-Jane Hills Orford -- Readers' Favorite (5-star review)
"A steady rhyme and rhythm that makes reading
Soar so fun. The rhyme also helps to share Ramone’s worry and fear in a way that kids will find comfortable and see the parallel in their own lives." -- Lliteracious
"The artwork of this story is as beautiful and captivating as the encouragement it gives. Everyone has found themselves in Ramone's shoes at one time or another. Firsts can be scary. Uncertainty can cripple hope, rob courage, and leave even the strong shaking. Ramone learns to stand in the face of uncertainty, to dare to believe in himself and overcome his fear. And joy quickly follows. Every reader will identify and find strength to overcome the scary firsts in their own lives. We can all SOAR with Ramone! (Ages 5-8)" -- Story Monsters Ink
