Ride the Wind
A beautiful, heartfelt story from the author of King of the Sky and The Promise.Javier has a secret. On one of his father`s fishing-trips, he finds an albatross caught on the hooks; alive, if only barely. Against his father`s orders, Javier smuggles the bird to safety and begins nursing it back to health. Every day, the albatross accepts a little more food – but she shows no sign of wanting to use her wings. And if Javier`s new friend refuses to fly, how will she ever find her way home? With words by award-winning author Nicola Davies and dramatic watercolours by Salvatore Rubbino, this is the story of a boy, a bird and the meaning of home.โ€Nicola Davies is one of the best children`s writers in the business.โ€ Huffington Post
