Featherless / Desplumado (Bilingual, English/Spanish)
At his new school or on the soccer field, all everyone wants to know is why Tomasito is in a wheelchair. His Papi gives Tomasito a new pet to make him smile, but this bird is a little bit different from the rest. Before long, this boy-bird team discovers that there's more than one way to fly—on or off the soccer field—and that those cheers Tomasito hears from the sidelines just might be for him.
