A grandmother and grandchild nurse an injured bird together in this
touching story about caring for all creatures, the wonder of nature, and
letting go
On a snowy day, a grandmother and grandchild
find an injured bird. They take it home and care for it until it can fly
around the living room. It is fantastic—just like everything at
Abuela’s house! But a fantastic moment is also bittersweet, for the
little bird’s recovery means that it’s time to let it fly free. Drawing
inspiration from a formative childhood experience, Blanca Gómez crafts a
deceptively simple story that is morally and emotionally resonant and
is brimming with love, wonder, and a deep respect for the natural world.
