Jeremiah, and his little sister, Julie, stepped out into the cold rain after their mother had asked them to stay home until the bad weather passed. They couldn’t resist the temptation: As soon as mom left the house they left to play under the cold downpour. A few days later, both brother and sister fell sick…coughing and sneezing badly. They learned their lesson; now they know that mommy knows best. Soon after they recovered, they went back to their usual routine…going to the park and playing with their friends.

One day, Julie happened upon a bird with a broken wing trying to hide among the shrub. She picked the bird up and took her home. Julie wanted the bird healed, and asked her mom and Jeremiah to assist in making sure that that happened.

Just before Julie found the bird, Jeremiah had had a life changing experience of his own; he had fallen off his bike one time and had suffered a cracked skull; he was afraid to get back on his bike again…and swore never to do so. Even the horse back riding that thrilled him now scared him. Jeremiah would not ride on anything going faster than he himself walked. Well, until Julie brought the bird they called Zoe, home.

Zoe’s broken wing eventually healed. Jeremiah and his sister, Julie, had to teach Zoe, the bird, how to fly again. Jeremiah was living with his own fears, while trying to teach Zoe how to fly again. That was when he realized that if Zoe could give up her fear of flying again, that he, Jeremiah could do the same, and learn to ride his bike again…even go horseback riding again.

Well, guess what happened?

Description

What happens when fear convinces you that you can never do something again?

Eight-year-old Jeremiah loves riding his bicycle through the woods, racing with his friends, and spending time with his twin sister, Julia. But after a painful bicycle accident, everything changes. Although his injuries heal, Jeremiah’s fear doesn’t. He stops riding, avoids horseback adventures, and watches from the porch as the people he loves enjoy the activities he once loved.

Then, one spring morning, Julia finds a tiny, injured bird hiding beneath a bush near their house. The bird has a broken wing and is too frightened to fly. The twins bring her home, care for her, and give her a beautiful name:

Zoe, which means “Life.”

As Zoe slowly begins to heal, Jeremiah sees something familiar in the frightened little bird. Zoe is afraid to use her wings, just as he is afraid to get back on his bicycle. And perhaps, without realizing it, the two of them need each other.

Jeremiah makes a brave decision: if he can help Zoe rediscover the wind beneath her wings, maybe he can rediscover his own courage too.

But just when it seems Zoe is ready to face her greatest challenge, an unexpected encounter at the park puts her life in danger.

With a determined dog racing after her and nowhere left to run, Zoe must finally make a choice:

Stay afraid or fly.
