Overview

Bravery doesn't always mean standing alone-it can mean stepping forward with others. The Circle of Storytellers has grown, and Maia's heart is fuller than ever. When she's invited to help lead a storytelling performance at the town's Festival of Voices, she wants everyone to shine. But not everything goes as planned-stage fright, stormy weather, and tangled nerves threaten to unravel the magic. With Bella the ladybug at her side, Maia must discover a new kind of courage: the kind that helps others find their strength. Because sometimes, being a leader means making space for every voice-even the shaky, shy, or silent ones. Maia and the Festival of Voices is a joyful, gently empowering chapter book for ages 7-11. Perfect for classrooms, creative clubs, and any child learning to rise to the occasion-without losing who they are. Highlights: Themes: Creative expression, self-doubt, friendship, teamwork, public speaking, community courage For ages 7-11 - ideal for sensitive, creative, or hesitant kids Supports SEL - social-emotional growth, confidence, inclusion Great for readers who love: storytelling, school performances, and heartwarming character journeys

Author Information

Belinda Chavremootoo writes whimsical stories for both kids and grown-ups-cozy mysteries with garden gates and clever cats, and magical adventures where shy voices find their roar. When she's not weaving tales, you'll find her in the garden, dreaming up characters between the tomatoes and thyme, closely supervised by her two cats (who take their roles very seriously). Belinda believes that every quiet heart holds a powerful story-sometimes, it just takes a tiny, talking ladybug to help it take flight.
