READ TO ME from...Flight of a Puffin by Ann Braden
Ann Braden made a book out of heartstrings and glitter. FLIGHT OF THE PUFFIN, for middle-grade readers, is both tough and whimsical, following four young people who are hurt and alone \u2014 until one tiny, delightfully illustrated act of kindness connects them. Changes them. Changes their communities. Lifts them up.
Do you know how rare that is, to make a book about moral courage and love that feels like a hummingbird? Ann Braden did, and we get to love why. And cry big, sloppy, happy heart tears.
