Bunny and Fawn: The Glowing Feather is the third book in the series by Michael Lingo. When the two animals find a glowing feather in the autumn woods, it’s the beginning of a new adventure. Not far from the feather, they find its owner, Phoenix. Their new friend must reach home before sunrise, but she is too tired to fly. With their friends Bear and Truffles, the two sisters and Phoenix begin a journey through the forest at night. Because Phoenix is tired, Fawn lets her ride on her back. Bear does the same for Bunny. Despite many obstacles, which Bear and Truffles clear for them, they make it to Phoenix’s cave just as the sun rises. And there they have a wonderful surprise.
The Glowing Feather is a marvelous read-aloud story for children, with some important lessons for people of all ages. Michael Lingo’s story reminds me of the old traditions of fables and fairy tales around the world, where animal protagonists displayed the virtues of kindness, loyalty, wisdom, and courage. In these tales, animals befriend and help a stranger, despite all obstacles. Here, the innocent woodland creatures show how friendship and working together can overcome all difficulties. The bright illustrations by Amanda Letcher are perfectly matched to the story, creating an unforgettable setting. The book will make a wonderful addition to any bookshelf, and will be treasured by kids and families for years. Also highly recommended for daycares and preschools, libraries, and all people who love stories of animals, adventure, and kindness.
