Description Heartfelt, tender, and a lot of feathery fun, The Dove Family Tale: A True Story by Jalma Barrett breaks the mold on how families can learn about the natural world and how each man, woman, child, feathered friend, and critter needs a home-a special place to feel safe, welcome, and content in order to be bold and accept challenges. Written with a rare insight and a keen wit for intermediate readers, this story centers on a family of doves. They make their home in a flowerbox watched by two children who learn from the birds' actions and antics. Dorothy and Dudley Dovely are busy raising their family, which includes two delightful, if daring, doves DeeDee and Dinky. Mark and Stacey are the lucky children. As they eagerly spy, they learn a great deal from the mourning doves. It ends up that life for a family of doves is not all cluck and cooing. It takes a lot of faith, a lot of hard work, a lot of love, and it just goes to show a family is a family no matter what the species might be.
