Mali's Magical Day

by Victoria Byron

Mali wishes to have a real adventure outside the comfort of his home, but he is unsure. With the help of a magical wind, he is drawn outside to experience the world through sounds, smell, and feel before being transported to a magical place, where he meets a monkey who needs help being brave, too. This whimsical journey, with simple and charming digital collage illustrations, is a story about finding the courage to step outside one’s comfort zone and shows how a child can find confidence through exploration and being independent, plus the strength to help others who lack confidence. While Mali is sight-impaired, this is not a story about disability but one that normalizes disability in a fun story that all children will relate to.
