How to Heal a Broken Wing (hardback)
Bob Graham
Synopsis:
When Will helps an injured bird, he learns that a little kindness can go a long way.
Winner of Book of the Year in the Early Childhood category by the Children’s Book Council of Australia.'
'Poignantly told and visually rich, this narrative flies high… Exemplary use of color and perspective denote shifting moods, and thin lines enhance the vulnerability of this boy and his bird. Gently expressed and honestly delivered, this quiet, yet powerful story provides young readers with an affirming conclusion'
- School Library Journal, US
