Gary the pigeon can't fly. When his racing pigeon friends head off in their travel basket, Gary stays at home. He organises his scrapbook of travel mementos and dreams about the adventures the other pigeons are having. But when Gary accidentally ends up a very long way from home, he discovers that flying is not the only way to have adventures.

A story for birds who dare to dream.

Reviews

"Gary, with his scrapbook and ingenuity of travel, will be much loved. Highly recommended for all, especially lovers of maps, birds, and travel." Reading Time; "This convivial and gentle story about differences is a needed addition to collections about challenging the norm or upending physical expectations." Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)
