Pretty Bird

A story of love and reconciliation. Simply told as a fable, "Pretty Bird" is complex and enlightening for adult and young readers alike. When Bird witnesses the unfortunate disappearance of her mother and death of her sister from their nest, she finds her courage to go out into the forest on her own without the ability to fly. She meets new fascinating friends. Dog is a brave domestic Dog that now lives in the forest and Squirrel is an excitable friend that is forever loyal to Pretty Bird.

Love, friendship, fears and triumphs are shared between unique quirky characters as they discover adventure and loyalty while realizing the risk and hurt that can come with love. Beautifully detailed in its description of the natural world, "Pretty Bird" powerfully evokes the relationship we all hold with our earth, our hearts, and our potential.
