When everything tilts sideways, sometimes all you need is a little magic-and a lot of courage.
Ten-year-old Ava Miller's world has been turned upside down. Her parents are separating, her mom is in the hospital with early labor, and she's spending Christmas Eve in her grandmother's apartment feeling scared and alone. But when Ava discovers a mysterious talking book that offers her ten tasks to complete in twenty-four hours, everything changes.
10 tasks. 24 hours. 1 miracle.
Each task teaches Ava something important about courage, sharing, helping, patience, remembrance, gratitude, song, family, siblings, and community. As she works through the challenges-from writing a heartfelt letter to her parents to creating a Help Basket for her neighbors-Ava discovers that she has the power to transform not just her own life, but her entire community.
