【勇氣實踐善與仁慈，救贖從夢境成為奇蹟】
繼 Wondes《奇蹟男孩》與講述三位配角的前傳故事集 Auggie & Me 兩部暢銷作品後，作者 R. J. Palacio 再度推出另一部賺人熱淚之作－White Bird。
講述的是奇蹟男孩奧吉的同學茱莉亞的祖母莎拉的故事：猶太女孩莎拉在二戰時藏匿於被納粹軍隊佔領的法國鄉村裡的驚險過程，並與一個她曾經避而遠之的男孩成為好友甚至成為她日後的救星。

In R. J. Palacio's bestselling collection of stories Auggie & Me, which expands on characters in Wonder, readers were introduced to Julian's grandmother, Grandmère. Here, Palacio makes her graphic novel debut with Grandmère's heartrending story: how she, a young Jewish girl, was hidden by a family in a Nazi-occupied French village during World War II; how the boy she and her classmates once shunned became her savior and best friend.

Sara's harrowing experience movingly demonstrates the power of kindness to change hearts, build bridges, and even save lives. As Grandmère tells Julian, "It always takes courage to be kind, but in those days, such kindness could cost you everything." With poignant symbolism and gorgeous artwork that brings Sara's story out of the past and cements it firmly in this moment in history, White Bird is sure to captivate anyone who was moved by the book Wonder or the blockbuster movie adaptation and its message.
