May your day be filled with lots of thankfulness!
We are on letter Hh of the Gratitude Alphabet! H is for Hummingbird!
Joey is thankful
for Hummingbirds! He loves to sit in his backyard and watch the hummingbirds
fly backwards, sideways, and upside down!! Hummingbirds can even hover in
place! Hummingbirds are one of the smallest birds in the world. The Bee hummingbird

I'm Mimi, the author of the JOEY SAVES THE DAY!
book series. I love reading, writing, teaching, and learning. I homeschool my
two youngest children. My 16-year-old daughter illustrated the books and will
illustrate all the rest of them in the series. She started illustrating the
series when she was 14 years old. She loves to draw. She is learning as she
goes. Her dream is to one day be a famous illustrator and a fantasy book
writer. Help me make my daughter’s dreams a reality and watch how her
illustrations evolve over time! Children and adults everywhere will love these
books. The story and illustrations within the pages of the books will put a big
smile on your face and your child will be delighted as you read them the books.
The illustrations are adorable and the stories are super cute. You don’t want
to miss out on the opportunity to own this collection of adorable books! All five
of the books are available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Target, Walmart, and
