Summary

"THE BOY WILL BE DEAD BY MORNING." This declaration by doctors to his parents a century ago catapulted a determined Wisconsin farm boy with severe paralytic polio into a pioneer practitioner of mind-body medicine. Angrily refusing to capitulate, teenager Milton H. Erickson set off on his own path to recovery. One day, quite by accident, he discovered that wondrous healing power existed within his mind. To everyone's amazement, with brilliant creative thinking and spartan discipline Milton bit by bit regained his body's functionality. For six decades past that fateful night in 1917, he lived on, working tirelessly to help others find healing resources embedded within them. To this day, he is globally renowned. For its wisdom, inspiration, and hope, Dr. Erickson's life story is essential reading for every child. 
Sidebars provide accompanying scientific detail for the parent, teacher, or older reader.

Mila becomes famous around the world when she is rescued from an unpopulated island off the coast of Florida. Years ago, Mila went missing from a boat crash, and she has been raised by dolphins from the age of four. 
 
Researchers teach Mila language and music. But she also learns about rules and expectations, about locked doors and broken promises, disappointment and betrayal. 
 
The more Mila finds out about what it means to be human, the more she longs for her home in the ocean . . .  
 
“As moving as a sonnet, as eloquently structured as a bell curve, this book poignantly explores the most profound of themes—what it means to be human . . . All together, a frequently dazzling novel.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) 
 
“Her mind and spirit shaped by the dolphins who raised her, a feral child views herself and her human captors from a decidedly unusual angle in this poignant story . . . A probing look at what makes us human, with an unforgettable protagonist.” —Kirkus Reviews 
 
“Mila’s rich inner voice makes her a lovely, lyrical character.” —VOYA Magazine
