Illustrated by
Kerry Hyndman.
A small Scandinavian robin fights rain, snow, rough terrain, and the churning sea to complete his migration to Britain. The poetic text and striking digital illustrations convey the challenge and drama of the journey. A note explains the Scandinavian robin's migratory pattern and how the Brits associate the bird with Christmastime.
