So begins critically acclaimed author Matteo Pericoli's all-true story of how he and his wife, Holly, came to rescue and raise a little finch, Stellina, in the middle of New York City.

"Apparently a lot of these children's books are going to be about animals. Were children's books always about animals when I was little? Probably. I did think animals were way better than humans. This story is...can I stop calling kids' books sweet? Nope...very sweet. It's about the life of a bird but it's also about how we can make an impact in the life of an animal and how in turn they make an even larger impact on us."
"I loved this picture book. There was more text than I usually like in a PB, but it had a fresh, quirky, charming voice. It had some repetition too (cheep, and now?) to keep kids following along with the longer text. And what a wonderful story, to boot!"
