My Beautiful Birds | Suzanne Del Rizzo
Pickpick

I think that this book was great (pub.2017). I would say that it is a book that most people do not know, but should know. It brings real life issues into a light that is understandable and necessary for children to see.
The illustrations were beautiful. I liked all of the different types of point of views whether that be face on or above the characters.
“But one day Sami receives a visit, and his new friends bring him hope for the future.“

#PrinceOfJuly Day 3: #WhenDovesCry reminded me of this picturebook about a young refugee whose healing came in the form of a dove, canary, pigeon, a rose finch – fleeting, flying creatures who sought refuge in Sami‘s longing to nurture and care for beings that are even worse off than he is.
