The Oddbird is a children's story about how something so obvious, like a bird's egg, isn't really obvious at all. This wonderfully illustrated book tells the story of Inna the oddbird, who finds herself among all the real and imaginary creatures of the forest. Let your imagination soar, because a surprise is around every corner!
Jeremy J. Sales grew up in the woods of New England. His parents always wanted him to explore the outdoors and be creative with his time. I'd take that cue to build a fort out back, climb trees, or go on a bike trip with friends. In all my adventures, the common theme was that what I anticipated to see rarely occurred. I saw a mayfly land on water, and expected it to get gobbled up, but nothing happened. No fish swam up and ate it. I felt a soft spot in the ground, peeled back the grass, and found it was a nest of bees! Each day it was something new, each day it was something different that I didn't expect. That's why I liked the idea of publishing this book: to give children a surprise they didn't see coming.
Originally from New Mexico, Denise Dorn has lived the past ten years on a small island in the Pacific. She began painting at a young age and has always been inspired by the beauty that surrounds her. Sharing her art in the form of a children's story causes her imagination to burst with excitement.
