Ikie The Emu (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798993848815)

Ikie the Emu is a heartwarming picture book inspired by a true story from a third-grade classroom in Mississippi.

When Miss Milley and her students receive a giant green emu egg, they decide to do something extraordinary: try to hatch it themselves! With creativity, teamwork, and a chicken egg incubator patched together with wooden sticks, the class cares for the egg day after day until a wobbly baby emu named Ikie arrives.

As Ikie grows, the students learn about responsibility, patience, and the joy of caring for another living creature. When Ikie's leg is injured, they rally around him with love and determination, and soon, he's back on his feet and ready for his next adventure at the emu farm.

Filled with warmth, curiosity, and gentle humor, Ikie the Emu celebrates creativity, compassion, and the special bond between children and animals. Perfect for classrooms, story time, and anyone who believes that big dreams can start in small places.
