by Derek Desierto

Overview

Notes From Your Bookseller

Oddbird is here to remind young readers that it's okay to be exactly who you are. This is an inspiring and heartwarming found family narrative that's perfect for modern times.

Oddbird has always been on his own. And he’s managed pretty well. But that’s changing – now, he wishes for a family.

When Oddbird’s friends plan a big surprise for him, he realizes he’s surrounded by those who accept and care for him. All families don’t look the same, and sometimes the families we choose are where we belong.
