He's left wondering what his wings are good for...if they're even good for anything at all. But a chance encounter with a dejected orangutan leads Bernard to a surprising discovery: that maybe what makes him different is actually something to be embraced."--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Bernard isn't like other birds.

This small bird discovers he can reach new heights by leaning on his peers...Told with humor and heart, this sweet friendship tale soars." <b>--<i>School Library Journal</i></b></p><p>"[A] humorous story with an important takeaway: our differences can be the very thing that make us dear to others, and embracing those differences can lead to the best things in life." <b>--<i>Booklist</i></b></p><p>"Adamson's watercolor and pencil art moves from vibrant full spreads to vignette-styled pages, lending both movement and focus, and wide-eyed, lavender-hued Bernard cuts an appealingly quirky figure with his wiggly wings...a celebration of cuddles and snuggles." <b>--<i>The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books</i></b></p><br>
