The Singing Swallow

Horatio, the singing swallow, is a proud little swallow who believes he has the best singing voice in the wetlands until another, extremely melodic, swallow flies in. This fills Horatio with emotions he’s never known and much self-doubt. Grappling with jealousy and anger, he retreats to contemplate the essence of himself and returns to learn of the gift that humility and courage can bring. Horatio's self perceived foe turns out to become his favorite singing companion and lifelong friend. In addition, there is a small educational blurb on the Welcome Swallow included at the end of the book.
