Melvin is the story of a little sandpiper who has had a disability for most of his life. However, Melvin has developed his own special skill. No other sandpiper on the beach has this skill. Melvin’s greatest challenge comes when he must make a life or death decision: Should he, with his special skill, attempt to save the bully of the beach, who has been cruel to him, or should he let the bully drown?
