(4) 1-3 When Gray, barely more than a kitten, befriends a young mockingbird who is afraid of heights, he names her Flea. He and his friend Callie, an elderly cat, must teach the bird to fly before winter sets in. Gray, the narrator, has a strong voice; however, the first half of this short novel is slow and lacks focus. Black-and-white drawings illustrate the story.
