Maia and the Festival of Voices: Even whispers can light up a crowd. Whispers to Waves, #6

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.
