All her life, the magpie did nothing but drag shiny trinkets to her nest. She had no friends and loved no one. But one day, she felt sorry for a little chick that had fallen out of its nest. And it turned out that there are much more important things in the world than collecting useless objects… This touching tale about a lost chick who unexpectedly finds a mother was written by the contemporary French author Christine Naumann-Villemin, whose books are widely known in Europe.
