Child reads book outdoors, looks up at flying birds, text 'My Words Have Wings', illustration style.

Title: My Words Have Wings Target Age: 4–8 years Summary: Meet Arlo, a bright and curious child who loves to dream big and tell stories—but sometimes his words come out in bumps and pauses. At school and in the park, Arlo worries that others don’t understand him or lose patience when he stutters. One day, a teacher introduces the class to birds of all shapes and sizes—some that swoop, some that flap quickly, and some that glide slowly. Arlo realizes that, like birds, every voice moves in its own way. His words might flutter or take time to fly, but they always have meaning, heart, and wings. Through poetic metaphors, gentle humor, and uplifting illustrations, My Words Have Wings shows children who stutter (and those around them) that it’s not about how fast you speak—it's about what you say and how you feel saying it.
