Simon and the Buddy Branch - Paperback

by Patricia Ann Simon (Author)

Simon understands what itÕs like to be born looking different than others. When he hatched, his beak had a gap, making it difficult for him to eat, smile, and sing. With help from his special friend, Patty, Simon now thrives. One day, Simon spots a sad blue jay sitting in a tree. No one came to BuddyÕs birthday party because heÕs different. Simon and Patty gather their friends and make Buddy feel special. They create the Buddy Branch, a place where birds can come when they feel lonely. Simon and the Buddy Branch, a childrenÕs picture book, shares a story of love, acceptance, and kindness. It communicates the message itÕs okay to be different; everyone is beautiful just the way they are.
