Ready To Soar

Have you checked out Cori Doerrfeld’s latest book “𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗼𝗮𝗿”?

Riley, our protagonist, is all set to try something new; Riley wants to make a paper plane and watch it take off. But the eagle who rules the sky and who is in charge, stops Riley and opines that the plane ought to be bigger. Riley fixes that and tries to fly the plane again. This time, the colourful parrot interjects and comments that the plane ought to be fancier. Riley makes amends again. Bird after bird offers advice making Riley feel that the efforts put in were not enough, that the plane always lacked something… until Riley meets a supportive friend, the penguin.

I could relate so well with this book – the birds that we meet in life are far too many, who make us feel always ‘not quite there yet’, as if we are not enough! But I am also immensely grateful to the penguins in my life who lift me up, and who are truly happy when the ‘plane’ takes off!

A very relatable and meaningful book to add to your collection.
