    3.75 - Good
    A gentle and free prose that mingles with imaginative illustrations. Expressive characters are communicative without dialogue. Brilliant personifications of animals that dance to the tune of friendship. A calm atmosphere graces the reader and balances comfort with renewal. Sparse narration accompanies definite visuals and subtle prose. Relatable plot delivers the important message of self-regulation. Embodies the kindness that prevails when facing anxiety with strangers. Brings a heartwarming and adventurous spirit. Recommended for enjoyers of pleasant stories that introduce vital life skills.

    ”That is the sound of your very own wings, beating within.”

    P.S. To me, wings symbolise freedom and the ability to go wherever one pleases. I like how the story emphasizes internal courage that becomes stronger as a result of social openness. The characters have lively personalities and there is no unnecessary details.
