The Boy, the Bird and the Coffin Maker by Matilda Woods
2.0
I received this ARC from the publisher.
A great woodworker lost his family to a sickness that swept through town. The man then uses his skills to create coffins for the townsfolk. One day, when the man is old, he discovers a boy hanging around his. The old man takes the boy in and they both begin to live again. However, the man must keep the boy secret because he is hiding from his abusive father. Each day the two get closer to discovery, but they are happy with the family they have created.
This is a cute magical book. I can see readers of both genders enjoying this book. I found the illustrations enhanced the content.
