Review
Muted, wintry colors and recurring round shapes perfectly describe both Bird's vulnerability and his meek desire for friendship. Na's illustrations conjure tender associations, making his simple story not only immensely pleasing, but important.
-Kirkus Review (starred review)
With sweet wit, Na translates human social awkwardness into the language of forest creatures.
