Inspired by Amnesty International's letter-writing campaigns to help free people who have been jailed for expressing their opinion, the book tells the story of a man who is arrested during a peaceful protest. In solitary confinement, he begins to despair--until a bird delivers a letter of support written by somebody outside the prison. Every day more missives arrive until the prisoner escapes his fate on wings made of letters. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Simple illustrations convey plenty of rich symbolism to provoke thought and discussion.
