Written by Jason M. Burns and illustrated by Amy Mebberson, with colors by Dustin Evans and letters by Deron Bennett, this heartfelt story celebrates the quiet bravery of ordinary people. The cover by Amy Mebberson captures Elmo’s hopeful determination in a moment that feels both familiar and full of wonder.
