The Little Hummingbird

From internationally renowned Haida artist Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas comes an inspiring picture book for kids 5-8 about a courageous hummingbird who defies fear and expectations to save her forest home.

Based on a South American Indigenous story, The Little Hummingbird features:

  • Stunning artwork in Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas' iconic style
  • An inspiring afterword from Nobel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai
  • Scientific and cultural facts about hummingbirds
  • This evocative and uplifting tale encourages everyone to take responsibility for their home and the planet.
