Bertie Wings It!

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Brendan Kearney. Bertie the bird, tired of his cramped quarters, wants to fly. However, he is continually blocked from achieving his goal by a number of rule-mongering busybodies. Eventually he takes to the skies, realizing that he knew how all along. Alongside vibrant, bird-filled pencil and digital illustrations, Gorin's discerning story about self-confidence also contains a healthy dose of humor.
