Dick King-Smith is an author I love. Whenever I pick up a book by him, I do so with complete faith in the story. As usual, I was not disappointed.
Billy the Bird is the story of a little child who becomes weightless when the moon is full, but can remember nothing of his nightly flights when the next day dawns. Billy’s sister is the one who witnesses his nocturnal flights, and keeps his secret – because no one will believe her if she tells them her brother can fly.
The story of a girl, a boy, a cat, a cat-burglar, a guinea-pig, and many more, Billy the Bird is a charming illustrated tale for children.
