I Am a Bird

Dana Walrath, an anthropologist and artist who has lived and worked all over the world, believes we are all as connected as the ocean and air we share. Her other books include the young adult verse novel Like Water on Stone and the graphic memoir Aliceheimer’s. I Am a Bird is her first picture book. When not playing in the waves, she lives in the mountains of Vermont. Visit her at DanaWalrath.com.
