The Woman Who Turned Children into Birds

★★★★★

English

By (author): David Almond

Illustrated by: Laura Carlin

She made her marks.
She whispered her words.
Then she said,
Go on. Be happy. Up you go.

When Nanty Solo comes to town, she says she can turn children into birds. The parents are skeptical, but the children want to fly. And before very long, everyone does. A celebratory, lyrical story that will make your heart and imagination soar. Written by internationally acclaimed author David Almond and brought to life in glorious uplifting paintings by award-winning illustrator Laura Carlin.
