A Christian children's allegory of faith from a bird's eye view! Frank Columbo is a pigeon on a mission... Fed up with bird bullies stealing his bread, Frank takes off on the journey of a lifetime. On wings of a higher power, Frank travels to a distant land to discover his royal heritage, a heavenly bread, a love he must share and news he must spread... REVIEWS... “Mary Beth Lavin has written a beautiful tale for children, filled with allusions to the Gospels and the history of the Church. The story of one pigeon’s fascinating journey to the roots of his faith, ‘Tweet’ is one of those rare accounts that illustrates the defeat of evil through the disarming power of goodness.” Fr. Lucas Laborde, St. John Society, U.S./Argentina “‘Tweet’ reawakened in my Franciscan heart joy and thankfulness for all that is innocent and childlike. It reinforces the importance of respect and appreciation for all that is sacred.” Sr. Anna Cosgrave OSF, Coordinator of Religious Ed., Holy Trinity Parish, Columbia, PA
