Both Vögelein books should be in comics stores today! Go! Buy! Hooray!
(Yes, it's a shameless plug. I'm allowed. Shut up.)
If you're not the comic-store type, it can also be ordered from:
Powell's, Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
Since I'm already tootin' my own horn, it's safe to say it's gotten some nice reviews already:
"The warm, comforting story, which feels like a folktale, spins out at a leisurely pace, allowing readers time to experience the lush softness of the black-and-white art and really appreciate the characters, the place, and the mood of the telling." -- Tina Coleman, Booklist
"... a beautiful, bittersweet, life-affirming story ... readers new to Vögelein will discover a fantastic treat. "
-- Kat Kan, graphic novel consultant, Brodart and HW Wilson and Voice Of Youth Advocates columnist
"Irwin's black-and-white painted artwork has a naturalistic feel and some beautiful designs, and her handling of emotions is nuanced and affecting. Recommended for all collections, for teens and adults."
-- Stephen Raiteri, The Library Journal
