A Manatee & A Prayer: "Sometimes the smallest prayer makes the biggest wave."

By Terri Emerson

A story of courage, faith, and the magic of believing in yourself.

Nixie loves nothing more than swimming with her best friends-Bubbles and Peanut, a gentle mother manatee and her playful calf. But when a sudden car accident changes everything, Nixie must face her biggest challenge yet: learning to walk again, rebuilding her confidence, and finding her place in a new world.

When she discovers that local bullies are planning a dangerous boat race that could harm her beloved manatees, Nixie refuses to give up. With the help of her family, a wise physical therapist, and her growing faith, she begins a brave journey of healing and hope.

Armed with courage and prayer, Nixie stands tall to protect Bubbles and Peanut-proving that heroes come in all sizes. Along the way, a friendly frog, a mysterious mermaid, and the strength of her belief remind her that with God, all things are possible.

A Manatee & A Prayer is an inspiring adventure about friendship, faith, and the power of never giving up. Perfect chapter book for young readers who love animals, heartwarming stories, and miracles that happen when you least expect them.
