(3) K-3 Illustrated by Eujin Kim Neilan. This quiet story begins with Mai feeding some caged birds and wishing they were free; the tale ends with this act of kindness ("Fly free, fly free..."), after a series of other actions have occurred. Handsome, serene watercolors show stranger helping stranger with shoes, water, food, and finally good health. A brief explanation of some Buddhist precepts concludes the book.
