Spread Your Wings is a beautiful story about a cockatoo that provides a loving and stable home for its young bird. Through reassurance, hope and encouragement, the young cockatoo learns to fly high in the sky, 'swooping, diving, circling in the clear blue sky'. And even when times may seem more scary and uncertain, the reassurance, hope and encouragement remains as support from the heart.

Spread Your Wings is a lovely book to share with children for reassurance in becoming confident to try new things. With clear, bold illustrations, and the odd injection of shiny gold print, this warming story will be sure to support children in their growth.
