"A young girl introduces herself to a new neighbor from Syria and bonds with him over shared interests in nature, birdwatching, and finding small treasures. His anxieties about his new life are eased when his knowledge from having pet pigeons in Syria helps save an injured cardinal. Polymer clay art depicts fall and winter scenes in a neighborhood where most residents are immigrants and where intergenerational friendships are strong."-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Del Rizzo’s storytelling is engaging, with a balance of dialogue and inner thoughts that bring her characters to life. The narrative is straightforward yet warm, drawing readers into the world of Moe and Sami. For instance, the description “I plop down on his bed. ‘Ouch!’ A tiny toy soldier, Sami’s keepsakes are scattered everywhere. I discover coins, multi-colored feathers, chunks of brick… and bird leg-bands too. ‘Your collection is incredible!’ I whisper,” vividly conjures Sami’s world. This attention to detail in the text beautifully complements the illustrations, enriching the story’s depth and echoing the birds’ natural habit of collecting.
The illustrations, a standout feature of the book, are made in a distinctive Claymation style. They are intricate and full of life, capturing the imagination with their richness and variety. The detailed depictions, especially of the birds and their plumage, add a special charm to the story, making each page a joy to explore.
In essence, “Birds on Wishbone Street” is a delightful tale that explores themes of kindness, community, and the beauty of diversity. It’s an inviting read for children, offering a subtle yet powerful message about the importance of empathy and forming connections in a world filled with different backgrounds and experiences. ( )
