A beautiful, full-colour picture book written by clinical psychologist and play therapist, Dr Jana Lazarus (also known as Dr Zizz), I Can Fly is the true story of our social circus in Cape Town, where all the performers are children. 🎪
We meet Lucky McTuff, who learns that we make our own luck with tenacity, gumption, and a little help from our friends. Despite a rough start in life, he seizes an opportunity, and through this interaction, his journey takes a fortunate turn. Lucky learns new skills, finds a new family, and a sense of belonging through the circus. His story resonates with so many youth-at-risk who have passed through the doors of our extraordinary circus. 🌟
“I felt it would be hugely beneficial to bring Zip Zap’s story of hope, creativity, and teamwork into our homes to share with our families. Kids need all the encouragement they can get. Literacy is so important, and we wish to promote the ancient tradition of storytelling, the joy of reading aloud and sharing positive vibes. Pass this tradition and the love of reading onto the younger ones.” Author, Dr Zizz
The book inspires children to dare to dream beyond their circumstances and reminds us that anything is possible. It’s exquisitely illustrated by one of Zip Zap’s talented young circus performers, Ayanda Nombelwu, and proceeds from the book support Zip Zap’s outreach programmes, continuing our life-changing work. 📖✨
