Summary
When a wingless bird's wish for getting a pair of golden wings comes true, his friends aren't accepting of his new look and so he flies away, yet while on his mission, he helps a man by giving him all his new feathers which then grow back black whereupon he is accepted by his flock once more. An ALA Notable Book. Reissue.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Tico, a little bird born without wings, is one day granted his dearest wish. But the wings he gets are made of gold and his bird friends turn against him. “You think you are better than we are,” they say. What Tico does with his golden feathers—and the important lesson he learns—is a fable that children will take to their hearts.
