Marvin and the Big Race

By Karin McCay

Book Overview

Marvin considers himself a very fast runner, perhaps the fastest in the school. So, when Principal Duckworth calls for a school race, Marvin plans to be the first at the finish line. But when the race begins and all the kids take off, something happens that changes Marvin forever.

Unique to all the Magic Mommy Stories, Marvin and the Big Race begins with a tribute to motherhood and ends with a twist. The final thought encourages children to see how good it feels to help other kids, especially those who live with challenges.

"The story of Marvin and the Big Race is enjoyable and simple, but with an adult-sized reminder of what matters - initiative to serve, coupled with a big dose of humility. I expect to see copies of Marvin's stories throughout our children's hospital!"
Mark Funderburk, CEO, University Medical Center in Lubbock, Texas.

"Marvin and the Big Race will impact children and parents. I love the story and absolutely support the message. This is a theme we can't tell our developing children too often." Douglas R. Kleppler, MD, Pediatrician.
