Description
Grandmother's Pigeon by Louise Erdrich is a heartwarming and mysterious tale about a family's unexpected surprise. When their grandmother suddenly departs, they are left with an even greater enigma: a clutch of eggs hatching from her collection of birds' nests. Among the eggs, three passenger pigeons emerge - a species thought to be extinct. As the story unfolds, Louise Erdrich weaves together whimsy and gravity, science and history, to create a world that is both intriguing and perfectly clear. Through the eyes of a curious grandchild, Grandmother's legacy comes alive in this charming and peculiar tale. With evocative artwork by Jim LaMarche, this book invites readers to follow Grandmother on her remarkable journey and to wonder at the magic of her storytelling.
