The beloved son

A book about diversity and new family relationships. With the help of a bird and a squirrel, and in a playful way, the author shows that there are no standards in love. Here, after a long wait, an egg finally appears in the squirrel and bird's nest. This somewhat unusual couple also deserves a family. Happily, they begin caring for the egg and, soon after, their chick—even more different and even more beloved. The two then learn that maintaining a family can be very exhausting, but there is no greater joy. And that, just as there are many different coats and feathers in the animal kingdom, love also has many faces. Sensitively, the author describes how a child can brighten a couple's life, no matter how different they all are from each other.
