A picture book by Ken Schept and illustrated by Romina Galotta about the power of remembrance and intergenerational tradition.
When she finds a feather, Grandma Dot adds it to her collection. Feathers, she tells her two granddaughters, remind Grandma Dot of people she's lost. At first, the girls see the feathers as fun to play with. But soon, Grandma Dot's feathers take on larger meanings - of comfort, remembrance, and love. This affectionate, hopeful story will inspire readers of all ages to make memories and traditions part of their own family stories.Ken Schept, a father and grandfather, wrote A Gift of Feathers, his debut children's book, following a successful career as a journalist and business writer. He received his MFA from Columbia University, and lives with his wife in Hoboken, NJ, where he now writes children's books and literary fiction.
Romina Galotta is an illustrator, an ardent animal lover, a passionate foodie, and a world traveler. Books she has illustrated include Dear Librarian by Lidia M. Sigwarth, which School Library Journal praised in a starred review as "using an array of media... to lovingly reflect the heroine's inner emotions and thoughts in the details and background on each page." She lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina.Contributor(s)
