A story of wonder and hope, with poetic language and lush oil paintings.Children will cheer on the tiny but mighty yellow warbler as she makes her perilous migration journey from the tropics of Central America to the Canadian tundra. The warbler is helped along the way by three different children and families: a Nicaraguan family whose traditional shade coffee farm sustains migrant birds, an African-American family that creates a garden in their backyard on the Gulf Coast to provide food for her, and a family from The Łuts͡l K'̌ Dene First Nation in Canada who have preserved land for all animals.
