Walker, Fly!

by Craig Jones, Amy Burgundy (Editor), Terry Ganey (Illustrator)

Walker spends his days doing what he has always done—crawling, eating, and staying safe close to the ground. Change is coming, but Walker seems blissfully unaware. Guided by a wise cardinal named Red, Walker embarks on a remarkable journey of transformation. As he grows from a tiny caterpillar into a magnificent monarch butterfly, he discovers that his greatest obstacle isn't a lack of wings—it's believing he can use them.

Told in beautiful rhyme and inspired by the wonder of nature, Walker, Fly! is a heartwarming story about courage, self-belief, and embracing the gifts we were created to share with the world. Through gentle encouragement and timeless wisdom, readers learn that growth can feel uncertain, fear is a natural part of change, and sometimes the biggest step forward is trusting who you were meant to become.

Perfect for children, parents, grandparents, teachers, and counselors of all ages, Walker, Fly! encourages meaningful conversations about confidence, perseverance, resilience, personal growth, and discovering one's purpose.
Because sometimes the only thing standing between us and our dreams is the courage to spread our wings.
