A winter illness left Lotus, a little girl, without a voice and without friends. A hunter's bullet left Feather, a crane, injured and unable to fly. As Lotus nurses Feather back to health, their bond grows. Soon Feather is following Lotus everywhere, even to school! The bird dances to the girl's reed whistle, much to the delight of the other children. One day, when the village floods, Feather helps raise the alarm as Lotus and her grandfather urge their neighbors to get to high ground. Feather is a true friend to Lotus, but the time comes when Lotus must be a true friend to him--by encouraging him to migrate with the rest of the cranes. The next spring, Feather miraculously returns, and that's not all . . . he has brought new life to the nearby lake. Inspired by the true story of a crane that rescued a Chinese village, and graced with sensitive watercolor illustrations, this lovely book about respecting nature offers deep emotion and delightful surprises.

The second Maisie Dobbs mystery Jacqueline Winspear’s marvelous debut, Maisie Dobbs, won her fans from around the world and raised her intuitive, intelligent, and resourceful heroine to the ranks of literature’s favorite sleuths. Birds of a Feather, its follow-up, finds psychologist and private investigator Maisie Dobbs on another dangerously intriguing adventure in London “between the wars.” It is the spring of 1930, and Maisie has been hired to find a runaway heiress. But what seems a simple case at the outset soon becomes increasingly complicated when three of the heiress’s old friends are found dead. Is there a connection between the woman’s mysterious disappearance and the murders? Who would want to kill three seemingly respectable young women? As Maisie investigates, she discovers that the answers lie in the unforgettable agony of the Great War.

This is the story of a queer son who grew up in a toxic, abusive Muslim household, and of all the people he couldn't love, the hugs he never felt, and the affection he always desired. This book must be released under an alias, not my real name. I hope that someday I can proudly say I wrote it, that it is about my life and the people I loved. I wish I could share with others the stories I witnessed and the laughter I shared. I wish my parents could see and know that I was loved by someone.

Great ideas start from the littlest of sparks. The sparks that birthed the short stories bound in this book started from a little game: weave a story with three random words. And I weaved. A businesswoman, a refugee, a sailor, a servant, a child, a young lady, a politician- all of them find their voice to give a glimpse into their stories. However obscure and fantastical they might be.
