Product Description

Perfect for fans of Ocean Meets Sky and Drawn Together, this lyrical, heartwarming picture book about a special friendship between an old man and a little bird celebrates the power of music, family, and the legacies our loved ones leave behind.

The old man played joyful, jolly music.
Sad, soulful music.
Beautiful, bountiful, breathtaking music.
Little Bird listened...until she couldn't stay quiet any longer.
Then, she sang.
"Bravo, Little Bird!" cheered the old man.

From this moment on, Little Bird and the old man are inseparable. Together, they make music and share their gifts with their families. But over time, the old man starts to grow tired...until the day comes when his piano playing stops altogether. As Little Bird looks for a special way to honor the old man's memory, she soon discovers that her friend isn't truly gone after all—he lives on in their music.

From School Library Journal

Gr 1-4—Little Bird is so enraptured by the piano music she hears flowing down from the house on the hill into the valley that she builds her nest right in the window of the old man who plays it for himself and his wife, who hums along. To the couple's delight, Little Bird is soon singing along with the music, and then her babies are as well. When their grandson begins visiting, the old man teaches him all about music and introduces him to Little Bird. As time passes the old man begins to nap more and play less, until "one morning all was quiet." Up on the hill none of them feels like singing, playing the piano, or humming along, but in the valley below Little Bird hears many variations on the old man's music. Inspired, Little Bird plans a musical tribute for the man's family that proves "The old man wasn't gone after all—he lived on in their music." Using crisp, clean lines with ample detail and just the right amount of white space, the illustrations effectively depict the sheer joy of sharing, learning, and playing music, in addition to the loss and hope at the story's end. The use of flowing musical notes to indicate how the music spreads from person to bird to the valley below is especially successful. The family is light skinned, while their neighbors are depicted with a variety of skin tones.
