Beautiful Photographs & Poetry submitted by sdunav on August 5, 2015, 10:37am This short book has incredible photographs of birds (many in flight), paired with a beautiful poem about flying. "Stitching earth to sky with invisible thread" is a phrase that will linger in my memory, I think. There's a nice descriptive afterword on the birds pictured. I'm not sure if children will like it as much as parents, however.
