Sparrow Spreads Her Wings

Sparrow Robinson hears a strange thwack from her bedroom window, and soon finds an injured pigeon getting buried in the snow, so she and best friend Paloma bring the bird inside while the grownups are busy, determined to nurse it back to health, even with curious kittens around the house.
