A children's book that empowers!
When the garden fairy Lola finds an injured, orphaned baby bird, a rescue mission begins. Seven-year-old Emma and her family find the tiny nestling through a little trick by Lola and take it in. Bit by bit, young listeners learn what genuine empathy, helpfulness, and family unity truly mean.
But the true magic of this book unfolds exactly where it is often hardest for children in real life: with bravely letting go and trusting in the unknown. When big emotions take over, the book shows in a touching way what a true family haven means. It celebrates the unshakeable bond between parent and child – a safe space where even the most incredible secrets are embraced unconditionally and full of love.
Without revealing too much: This true-to-life adventure plants an invisible anchor in the hearts of children. It lets them feel firsthand that the strength to overcome fears and master unforeseen hurdles already lies dormant deep within themselves.
Refined is this extraordinary story by Sarah Mars through the fascinating, highly detailed illustrations by Aicke-Wulf Linsner, which stand far apart from the mainstream.
