Beskrivning

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—now in board book!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 brimming with love, wonder, and a deep respect for the natural world.

Mer om författaren

Blanca Gómez was born in Madrid. When she was a kid, she spent a lot of time at her grandma’s. There she ate bread with olive oil for breakfast, ran away from the cat in the corridor, and bumped her head on the corner of the table quite often. So it makes sense that the first book she both wrote and illustrated talks about her grandma.

Recensioner i media

The concise, well-worded text sets the tone and tells the story, while leaving plenty of space for the expressive digital illustrations to work their magic. Viewers can feel the chill in the winter-walk scenes and the brightness when spring arrives, but the warmth between the child and her grandmother is evident throughout the book.
