"To make a bird, you'll need hundreds of tiny, hollow bones, so light you can barely feel them on your palm. So light they can float on air. Next you'll need feathers for warmth and lift. There will be more besides; perhaps shells and stones for last touches. But what will finally make your bird tremble with dreams of open sky and soaring flight?"-- Provided by publisher.
