Book excerpt: "How Victor Found His Voice"​ is a delightful children's story about a ridiculously talkative boy named Victor who one day loses his voice only to find it again much later. Most importantly, Victor finds his voice when he discovers the art of listening. Brett Manning and Melissa Montgomery's collaboration weaves deep-seated profundity and whimsy into an endearing children's book that will win over the hearts of children with its message, ​"Listen more than you speak, and only speak if you can improve the silence." The key to a successful children's book is a timeless message and an intrinsic delivery system. ​"How Victor Found His Voice" ​has both.
