內容簡介

★"This nonfiction book has themes of environmental protection, determination, helping others, and following one's passions. The artwork and the story are inspiring and beautiful." --School Library Journal (SLJ), starred review

Brothers Nadeem and Saud grew up in Delhi watching the majestic raptors called black kites circle in the sky above their heads.

But every year, when paper-kite-flying season came and people brought out their glass-coated kite strings called manja to have friendly battles, the beautiful birds faced dangerous skies. One day, the brothers found a black kite tangled in manja, but their local vet couldn't help. As they got older, the brothers never forgot that day. Learning from a local vet, who taught them how to mend a bird's wing, and a neighbour who trained pigeons, they began to rescue and rehabilitate injured black kites.

Bird Brothers, A Delhi Story depicts the powerful true story of Nadeem Shehzad and Mohammad Saud, who have devoted their lives to helping these birds return to the sky.

Praise for Rina Singh

★"A very wise book, speaking volumes...Share this at story hours, or hand it to the child struggling to read; this communicates essential truths without a word. Marvelous."--School Library Journal, starred review for Once, a Bird

★"This sweet, understated story is wordless--a perfect way to tell it, as it requires youngsters to relate to the illustrations in a unique, profoundly personal way...Refreshing, beautiful, moving, and meaningful."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review for Once, a Bird

★"With cinematic fluidity, Dion's marvellous watercolor, gouache, and digital illustrations evocatively convey Singh's thoughtful wordless narrative...This multilayered wordless picture book has much to say about nature, renewal, and resiliency."--Booklist, starred review for Once, a Bird

★ "[A] tender tribute to the Hindu holiday of Holi...A joyful hybrid of concept book, holiday title, and portrait of familial love."--Publishers Weekly, starred review for Holi Colors

★ "Singh celebrates Holi, the Hindu festival of colors and love, and highlights six colors in this vibrant, playful board book...The sheer joy of the event comes through on nearly every page...Communicating the universal concept of color within the specific celebration of Holi, this gem deserves a place in every child's book bag."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review for Holi Colors
