Book Synopsis My Words Flew Away Like Birds by : Debora Pearson
Book excerpt: A powerful and poetic immigration story. A girl learns words in a new language to prepare for her move to a new country. But when her family arrives, everyone speaks so fast and “all her words fly away like birds.” The girl waits, and watches, and listens, trying to figure things out. Only, it’s hard. Then one day the girl meets someone who needs her help. And as she makes a new friend, the new words start to come easier — becoming her words, at last. A perfect read-aloud, this poignant story offers a powerful lesson in empathy for children everywhere.
