Overview
From Governor Generalās Literary Award finalist Michelle Kadarusman. A moving novel for middle-grade readers that is not about overcoming disability, but rather becoming oneās truest self
āHummingbirds and angels donāt need two good feet. They have wings.ā Thatās what Albaās mother always says. Of course, Alba doesnāt 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 doesnāt 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 onājust in time to run in the school cross-country race. Unfortunately, Albaās best friend Levi thinks thereās no way she can pull it off. And she thinks thereās no way heās 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.
