White Bird: A Wonder Story by R.J. Palacio
5.0

An exceptional story by the author of Wonder. A beautiful heartbreaking story of a Jewish girl in exile in France during WWII. Based on a true story with detail and artwork that brings the characters to life. Hope is found in the moments of kindness and bravery of individuals helping others. The art is simple, kid friendly and beautiful and there is a nice afterward with a detailed glossary, notes and bibliography that extends the historical grounding.
