South by cartoonist Patrick McDonnell is a tender and wordless story
about a bird who is left behind for the winter migration, due to
oversleeping. Mooch the cat takes on the task of helping the bird find
its family, trekking through ice, snow and hail. It wordlessly explores the themes of friendship, loss, and joy. This book
would be an excellent choice for many elementary aged children, even
readers, as filling in the dialogue would be fun and rewarding for
all.
