A sky full of kindness.

I am pretty lucky to have been given this beautiful book, by one of my favourite artists Rob Ryan, as a gift from my lovely brother & sister in-law. It seems to be one of those perfect matches for a time in my life. The book is based on '2 birds on a epic adventure as they become parents for the first time'.


A sky full of kindness, is just as beautifully written as it is created, with each page paper cut in true Rob Ryan Style. One of my favourite part's is how proud the father-to-be is:

'The Father-to-be turned upon the window ledge to face the city (if not the entire world) that lay spread out beneath him. Swelled with pride he burst into song - louder than he had ever sung before. He could not tell you where the words came from, he certainly didn't plan them in his head, they rose directly from his heart up to his beak and from there they travelled out across the whole town and beyond..'

A bedtime story for every age, so maybe once my little bird arrives I can one day read this to her too. x
