Birds of the Air: Seeing the Hidden Value that God Sees

In Birds of the Air by S.E.M. Ishida, several birds hear the news that God's Spirit will descend on Jesus in the form of a bird, but no one knows which bird. Immediately, they begin to compare themselves, boasting about why each should be God's symbol-the peacock for his beauty, the eagle for his strength, and the parrot for his smarts. But the dove, the least impressive bird of all, has more in common with Jesus than the other birds realize. Recommended for ages 4 to 8 years.
