Ohhhhh...soooo cute! This one makes you want a worm for a friend. Wait, what?
Okay, this is a book about 3 birds - you know with the wings and everything. They have a problem. These three birds cannot fly. Yep, they stand on the edge of the cliff and watch every other bird take off and disappear into that great big blue sky. Every … single… time.
So, what do they do about it? Do they quit? Do they moan? Do they complain to each other and have another seed to feel better?
Hmmm...I wonder what they will do. I wonder what we will do when we have a problem and we cannot "fly?"
Adorable, fun, light-hearted while delivering a memorable message about encouragement and empowerment. No heavy hand here - this one soars.
