White Fur Flying by Patricia MacLachlan
This book is great for seven to nine year old children and even more children for family read-alouds. This realistic fiction uses animals to assist with understanding and patience. Even the parrot speaks, "You can't know". This book demonstrates the delicate balance of people's feelings, but also shows how patience and time can heal . Even though there is a storm, this is a very calming book. The way Patricia MacLachlan writes is so peaceful. You don't have to be a dog lover to love this book.
