In this charming story, a hummingbird makes a valiant effort to put out a raging fire that threatens her forest home \u2014 trip after trip, her beak is filled each time with just a drop of water. Her efforts show her woodland companions that doing something \u2014 anything \u2014 is better than doing nothing at all. The hummingbird parable, which originates with the Quechuan people of South America, has become a talisman for environmentalists and activists worldwide committed to making meaningful change. This retelling, enlivened by Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas\u2019 fabulous Haida Manga illustrations, is suitable for all ages of would-be activists. Although environmental responsibility often seems like an overwhelming task, Flight of the Hummingbird shows how easy it is to start and how great the effect could be if everyone just did what they could.<\/p>\n<header class=\"bg-primary py-4 mb-4\">\n<div class=\"container\">\n<div class=\"row h-100 align-items-center\">\n<div class=\"col-lg-12\">\n<h3 data-wp-editing=\"1\"><strong>Suggested&nbsp; Continue Learning at Home sites<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"container\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<p>\u2022 Our newly created Continuing Learning Website can be found at: <a href=\"https:\/\/learning.burnabyschools.ca\/\">https:\/\/learning.burnabyschools.ca\/<\/a>.
