Dodo GN

Description

When Laila's parents split up, Laila doesn't understand why her life has changed, and why her dad never comes by anymore. Lonely and confused, Laila ends up befriending a strange bird that lives in the park by her house. Her friendship with this bird, a dodo named Ralph, takes Laila on a journey she never expected and shows her things about her own world she had never noticed before. "Dodo is a story made for children, like me, who grew up with divorced parents, spent hours in front of the TV, and learned to deal with loneliness from by yourself. We always find a way to fill in the empty spaces in our lives, even if it’s with a strange companion that might not exist outside of our own minds."
