520 "What do you do when it feels impossible to live up to
everything expected of you? When the only person who
understands you disappears? When you are young and long
for something that seems out of reach? Berta dreams of
being an artist, but as a girl growing up in a small
Swedish farming village in the 1920s, she has little hope.
She finds solace in nature, and in drawing and shaping
birds from clay for her mother, the only person who seems
to truly understand her. When her mother succumbs to
tuberculosis, Berta feels alone, in despair and even more
burdened by all the work on the farm. Can she find the
courage to defy her father and the social conventions of
her time, and fly free? This beautifully illustrated novel
in verse, inspired by the paintings, letters and diaries
of Swedish artist Berta Hansson (1910-1994), is a
universal story of grief, longing and following your
dreams. Includes an afterword by journalist Alexandra
Sundqvist."--|cProvided by publisher
