Ada and Her Magic Feather Go Fishing

By Suzanne Marie

Ada has had a hard day.

She worked carefully on her forest painting, noticing every small detail. Still, the prize went to something glittery and bright. Again. Ada feels disappointed, a little grumpy, and very small.

Kokum doesn't try to fix it with words. She packs the boat instead.

With Magic Feather close by, Ada heads out onto the lake. The water is calm, and fishing takes patience. Fishing creates space to slow down, even on the hard days.

Out on the lake, Ada begins to wonder if being proud of her work has anything to do with winning at all.

Ada and Her Magic Feather Go Fishing is a thoughtful children's story about family, big feelings, self-esteem, and resilience. Set in a quiet country landscape and centred on Ada's relationship with her grandmother, Kokum, this book gently explores social-emotional learning, gratitude, and confidence in school life.

This M tis family story invites young readers to reflect on competition, friendship, and giving thanks before they know how things will turn out.

Cast off with Ada, Kokum, and Magic Feather for a day on the water.
