A Story About Having the Courage to DREAM BIG!
In Songbird, author Jenn Larson encourages kids to believe in their dreams - even when no one else does. With delightful illustrations and an inspiring message, this book shows kids what it looks like to set a goal and work hard to reach it.
While most birds dream of being seed gatherers or nest builders, Sydney Sparrow has a dream that is a little bit out of the ordinary. She wants to be a great conductor with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra! But when the other birds start questioning her dream, Sydney wonders if she has set her sights too high.
With a little courage and determination - and a whole lot of practice - can Sydney Sparrow turn her dream into a reality?
"Songbird by Jenn Larson is an adorable story of a courageous little sparrow who chases her dreams! This great read encourages kids to believe in their dreams, work hard, practice and never lose sight of their dreams no matter how out of the ordinary they may be! I love how this book can be used in the classroom to teach students self-confidence, goal setting and perseverance."

"There are so few high-quality, engaging stories for elementary learners that explore career awareness. This brand new book by Jenn Larson is a GREAT one to add to your school counsellor library! This story is so empowering and encouraging for our children, and helps them understand that their future is theirs' to design. With practice, determination, and hard work, they can dream big and pursue any career that their heart desires! This story would be the perfect introduction to a careers unit, or would accompany self-esteem work very well, too!"
