Bigwig's Illustrated Guide to Birds - by Letisia Cruz (Paperback)

About the Book

Bigwig is an illustrated poetic guide that explores the love and loss of a pet.

Book Synopsis

Put down your Sibley and slowly back away. Bigwig has a guide that will not help you distinguish a House Finch from a Cassin's Finch, but will help you remember that "Birds are transformative by nature, / connected to the infinite." In that way, Letisia Cruz's love-lush graphic poem Bigwig's Illustrated Guide to Birds resembles the birds that populate it: Cruz's book, too, is transformative and connected to the infinite.

Review Quotes

"Bigwig's Illustrated Guide to Birds is a poignant, life-affirming look at the marvels of nature, love, and flight featuring gorgeous drawings and written from the perspective of a very wise and observant cat. I loved this gorgeous book and its message to humans of all ages."
