Description
Sprout, a small hen with a big, impossible dream, longs to fly beyond the boundaries of her coop and the expectations placed on her. As she navigates hardship, loss, and the complicated ties of belonging, her journey becomes a tender exploration of hope, resilience, and what it means to choose freedom—especially when “family” is defined by more than blood. With lyrical, emotionally precise storytelling, this short, beautifully illustrated novella turns everyday farm creatures into vivid characters while raising quietly profound questions about outsiders, refugees, and empathy for those we fear or misunderstand. A modern classic in the spirit of beloved literary fables, it reminds readers that dreams can be both a refuge and a form of courage.
