Abracadabra! The Magic of Trying

Written by Maria Loretta Giraldo and Illustrated by Nicoletta Bertelle
All of the little birds have learned to fly...all except one. Little Owl can't do it! But others explain to him that it's easy: all he has to do is say "abracadabra" and try, and try again, until he succeeds! Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers by Ara J. Schmitt, PhD, about perseverance and discovering the "magic" that's within you.
