Being With The Birds

Keyvan’s facial tic and his lack of interest in conventional kid activities like sports keeps him feeling like a social outsider—until he sees a falconry exhibit at a local country fair and a hawk named Shahin teaches him about patience, perseverance, and honouring yourself and who you are. Being with the Birds by award-winning Iranian-Canadian author and mother of four Hollay Ghadery is a heartfelt and tender testament to the happiness waiting for us beyond the usual. It’s a story of finding belonging in the wildest and most wonderfully unexpected places.
