Moonbird
Written by Joyce Dunbar
Illustrated by Jane Ray
"This was no ordinary silence.
This was the silence of the moon.
Orla is a boy in a bubble.
He can't hear the sounds of the earth, he doesn't answer when his mother and father call his name.
But from the magical moonbird Orla learns how to speak with his hands and listen with his eyes.
But will his parents understand him?
What is the secret that opens their minds and hearts?"
