A fisherman and an injured bird embark on a journey south, forging an unexpected bond along the way.
A solitary fisherman discovers an injured bird on his boat and decides to help it heal. Unable to migrate, the bird joins him on a voyage south, sparking an unexpected friendship. As they navigate the open sea, their bond deepens, but the journey's end looms, bringing the bittersweet challenge of parting. Will their friendship withstand the test of distance and time? This tale explores the beauty of new beginnings and the poignant farewell to cherished companions.
When a lonely fisherman finds an injured bird on his boat, he nurtures it back to health and–since the bird can no longer migrate with its family–charts a course to head south for the winter. Together, the two form a special friendship and enjoy life at sea until both the healing process and the journey must come to an end. In the tradition of the classic Amos & Boris, South is a story about making new friends and the bittersweet process of saying good-bye to the ones we love. It beautifully depicts the power of new beginnings and the freedom in coming home.
