Sparrow and the Stormy Day

By Shannon Taylor

Book Overview

It's a beautiful day in every way or so it seems...

Happy chirps and swift swoops engage readers as they follow Sparrow and friends through the colorfully illustrated pages of this fun story. Each bird has their idea of the perfect way to spend the day, but Sparrow's hopes fade when a storm arrives and shakes the valley. "Eeet-eeet-eeet!" The bird warns before getting caught up in a storm. Sparrow is taken on a wild, twisting ride through darkness and left breathless and sick. Readers will find themselves laughing and spinning the book in circles as they experience the storm with Sparrow.

Pip, Lee and Jay find Sparrow huddled in a puddle, scared and alone. Sparrow is overjoyed to see friends after feeling so helpless. They discuss how each bird has spent their day. Sparrow is surprised to hear how their adventures have been different in ways that weren't scary. The birds encourage and comfort Sparrow as another storm approaches. This time, they are all together and Sparrow feels empowered from their support to weather the ups and downs more positively. As the clouds clear, they reflect on their journey.

Hold on and join them on this adventure about friendship and discovering the power we have within us to overcome fear.
