“The Yellow Bird Sings” by Jennifer Rosner
Published by Flatiron Books
The writing in this book is simply beautiful, making it a
wonderful read. It’s historical fiction
taking place in WWII Poland, in which a mother and her young daughter are
forced into hiding. To try to keep her daughter
quiet, she tells her the story of a yellow bird that will sing whatever tune is
in your head while being quiet. The
imaginary bird not only helps keep her quiet but also instills a greater love
of music. The yellow bird and the
mother/daughter bond play a large part in their struggle to survive.
Sidenote, I found out that this is the author’s debut novel.
Knowing that makes this book even more
impressive. I will be adding her 2nd
novel, Once We Were Home, to my list of books to read.
Finished 8/27 – 5/5 stars
