*"A gentle, effective presentation of grieving and moving on." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) A beautiful father-daughter story celebrating love, loss, and healing, and one bird's broken wing that may prove impossible to fix.Lucy has always been good at fixing things--the wonky mailbox, broken watches, even Dad's old binoculars. And Lucy is happy to help her dad; they share a special bond. It's just the two of them, after all. So when Lucy finds a tiny bird with a broken wing, she's sure she can fix him too--but not everything that's broken can be fixed.
A tender and loving story about loss, healing, and the special connection between fathers and daughters.
Praise for When We Fly: "The core of author-illustrator McGeachin s poignant, fantastical tale is grounded in sobering reality, as Lucy s father helps her come to terms with the knowledge that not everything is fixable, but he also teaches her that moving forward is possible with the support of loved ones."
