Even a city has a reef. On his first morning in San Francisco, Seru steps outside to explore his new street. It's cold and grey and nothing like home - until he finds a small park, a tree full of sparrows, and an old man on a bench who has been coming to the same spot for thirty years. Little by little, Seru starts to notice things. The bakery that smells like warm mornings. The birds that own their patch of the city. The small, ordinary kindnesses that make a strange place feel a tiny bit like home. A gentle, hopeful story about looking closely - and discovering that wonder can be found absolutely anywhere. *Book Seven of the Seru From the Sea series - Ages 8-11*
