This was an absolute treasure and tear producer that teaches young readers about having hope in something they wish to attain. There was a mountain that existed in a desolate area. The only form of touch came from the harsh heat during the day and snow from the winter. One day, a bird name Joy stopped by which caught the mountain by surprise. After making acquaintance with joy, the mountain asks if joy could stay. Joy explains her reason for stopping by, but the mountain can not understand her reasoning for leaving. Joy starts bringing seeds on her annual journey. Before long, mountain starts developing vegetation, plant'life, and insects along its terrain. After realizing this, mountain strams becomes tears of joy. Finally, one day, joy does not return with a seed but a twig and places it on top of the tree that was first planted to build her nest. Thus assuring mountain that she was there to stay. Even though this story has its sad moments, I think it gives value to young readers by its elements of nature and friendship. This story heights their sensitivity towards nature and animals alike. A bird visits a mountain and they fall in love. One time the bird leaves, the mountain wept. The mountain wants the bird to stay and so she happily comes back by building a nest there. You learn a lot of this story. Mountains live forever and birds do not. Birds are living things, but mountains are dead. This story also preaches about patience because the bird had to wait years before it can move its habitat in the heart of the mountain. I enjoyed reading this book. It reminded me of traditional literature in the way it was written and the language it used. For example, the first line says "There once was a mountain made of bare stone." Most traditional literature that I can remember reading read as if the events actually occurred. I enjoyed the illustrations because they look like the illustrator used tissue paper and marker to create them. I also like the underlying messages it sends to readers about kindness, hope, persistence, and investments. The bird and the mountain were kind to each other which lead to the persistence of them both continuing to engage each other in kindness and friendship. The bird, being kind, invested into the mountain by planting a seed which lead to the transformation which lead to the mountain ultimately getting what he wanted in the end. This text could be used to encourage values and positive character traits in students. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
