The Wandering Feather

The Wandering FeatherIn this charming debut, a feather from a red tailed hawk finds its home in a little girl's dreamcatcher. When a gust of wind blows a feather off a flying red tailed hawk, it marks the beginning of that feather's quest to find a new home.

Soon, the feather is picked up by a little girl who lovingly takes it home to join two other feathers
