Tale of two birds

A soft exploration of connection—where distance and closeness both have a place, and two birds find their own rhythm in the space they share.

Two birds set out for a mountain. One wants to go straight up. The other looks at the height, and is afraid. So they go the way a small bird can — to the first tree, then the next, resting on every branch until the mountain is near enough to reach. In this gently illustrated nature board book for children, little readers follow a climb taken one step at a time, and find that going slowly beside someone is its own kind of brave. An open-ended story to read aloud from 0 and read along from 3. Part of the Aana's Trunk nature-story series of board books that grow with your child.
