Gordimer Byrd’s Reminder

Gordimer Byrd is a champion thimble-dimpler. But he knows he is destined for something greater. And when he stumbles upon a seemingly magic pebble, he’s absolutely sure of it. What happens, then, when the pebble is not as magic as it at first seems?

In his stunning picture-book debut, Robert Weinstock relates the story of an unassuming little bird who struggles mightily to realize his dreams. His artwork draws upon antique etchings and a distinctive use of color and composition, and his story is every bit as original. Gordimer Byrd is sure to charm all who encounter him. He reminds us that when looking for magic, we need search no farther than our own backyard.
