Together, Maddie and Zobie help them and other children with special needs feel valued just as they are. Zobie shows that “different” is not “less” and kindness leads where ALL kids are winners.

Reggie Jones

Reggie used to love Christmastime. Not this year. His allergy to pine has made his asthma so bad, he can’t have a real Christmas tree at Grandma’s. Maddie and Zobie lead Reggie to the woods where Zobie tops his fresh-picked tree with a star!

Lucinia Lopez

Wheelchair-bound Nia meets Maddie at Art Camp. Bullies make fun of Nia’s art, so Maddie makes up a story where Zobie helps Nia run circles around the bullies and win the Art Camp’s biggest prize.

Brett Boyko

Born without a left arm, Brett could still fish when his dad hooked the bait. His dad is gone now; Mom works two jobs; who will help Brett? Zobie and Maddie to the rescue in this hilarious tale of a fishing trip when Brett climbs aboard for a boat ride he’ll never forget.

Beanie Curtis

Beanie, nicknamed for loving jelly beans, has Downs Syndrome. It’s okay that everyone can tell by her face, but she’s much more than “a syndrome.” She jumps at Maddie’s offer to make up her special story about secrets. Beanie, Maddie, and Zobie all share.

Yoshi Ito

A visible curve in Yoshi’s back makes it hard to play ball, and painful to hear kids make fun of him. Maddie’s magic pencil goes to work. When Yoshi’s at bat, Zobie swoops in, grabs the pitch, and flies it over the fence. Homerun! The crowd cheers the winning score.

Neesha Kusmar

Maddie can’t wait to visit Neesha and her family in the city. Roller Park, shopping, girl time. Neesha’s face has healed from her burns. Bangs cover scars. But, she still feels ugly until Maddie brings Zobie in the picture for a hilarious visit to the Science Museum.
