2018 New Apple Book Awards: 2015 AND OLDER

SOLO MEDALIST WINNER

Talon, Come Fly with Me

by Gigi Sedlmayer

An inspirational, highly emotional and entertaining read for all ages. Matica, the heroine, is a strong, brave girl, who battles with her handicap and how others view her. But this isn’t a story only about her gaining acceptance or overcoming her challenges. Rather, it’s a tale packed full of exciting moments and tons of emotions.
Each situation is fun to read and it made one anxious to see what's next. Acceptance was eloquently woven into the story without being blatant.
When certain things happen, you don't always know why and just maybe something good will come of it.
Her disability is her greatest strength.
