With a final surgery and cast to correct her club foot, Alba sets her sights on running in the sixth grade cross-country race, but her best friend Levi doesn't think she can pull it off. - Ingram Publishing Services
A moving novel for middle-grade readers that is not about overcoming disability, but rather becoming oneâs truest self
âHummingbirds and angels donât need two good feet. They have wings.â Thatâs what Albaâs mother always says. Of course, Alba doesnât have wings or two good feet: she has Cleo. Cleo is the name Alba has given to her left foot, which was born twisted in the wrong direction. When she points this out, though, her mother just smiles like the world has some surprise in store she doesnât know about yet.
Well, Alba has her own surprise planned. After many surgeries and one final cast, Cleo is almost ready to meet the world straight onâjust in time to run in the school cross-country race. Unfortunately, Albaâs best friend Levi thinks thereâs no way she can pull it off. And she thinks thereâs no way heâs right about the school librarian hiding a wormhole in her office. Tempers flare. Sharp words fly faster than hummingbirds. And soon it looks like both friends will be stuck proving their theories on their own.
The Theory of Hummingbirds is now available in a paperback edition with French flaps and a brand-new cover!
