Product Details
The Beggar and the Bluebird is a modern-day fairytale in the tradition of Hans Christian Anderson and the Grimm Brothers. The Beggar and the Bluebird tells the moving story of a little bird whose flight southward for the winter keeps getting delayed because of the strange requests of a local street beggar. Written by Anthony DeStefano, children and adults are inspired by this story of risk and sacrifice. The Beggar and the Bluebird is a hardcover book with 40 pages and measures 9”W x 9”H. The imagination provoking illustrations by Richard Cowdrey affirm his New York Times Bestselling Artist status.
The Beggar and the Bluebird teaches children the true meaning of gift-giving and demonstrates that great love is always rewarded by God—though often not in ways we can predict. The beggar asks the bird to deliver bread to a homeless man, money to a widow with children, and a gold cross to a sick boy in the hospital. As a result of performing these acts of mercy, the kind bird gets caught in a massive winter snowstorm. All seems lost, until an astonishing turn of events reveals the true identity of the street beggar. The poignant and miraculous ending of The Beggar and The Bluebird is sure to bring happy tears to young and older readers alike.
