New friends to meet, new worlds to explore...
Amelia is a shy little girl with a big imagination. After an injury, she finds solace in stories--fairy tales about faraway lands and magical creatures. When two children move in next door, Amelia wonders: Can she play with them? Can she be as brave as the heroines in the stories she reads? With the help of a little bird outside her window, Amelia finds the courage she needs to embark on a journey in her new wheelchair...where she discovers that there is magic to be found just outside her window.
With lyrical text and lovely watercolor illustrations, Outside Amelia's Window is a heartfelt story about friendship, new beginnings, and embracing the beauty of the world around us.
