Description
A heartwarming picture book by Margaret Wise Brown is beautifully reillustrated for a contemporary audience. One day, children find a bird lying still and decide to say goodbye. They gently lay the bird in a hole they've dug, covering it with flowers and sweet-ferns, and sing sweet songs to help it on its way. This poignant story explores how children cope with loss and find comfort in caring for others. The new illustrations by Christian Robinson bring warmth and depth to this story. The book's simple yet powerful message makes it a great choice for parents and educators looking for stories that address difficult topics in an accessible way.
