I am a bird. I glide
into arms open wide.
I'm the hands that hold
and the eyes that shine...
when it's you
and it's me
and the sea.
A boy and his father spend their day at the beach, exploring the shore, the sand, the water, and everything in between. The result is a warm, elegant celebration of nature, connection, and the myriad relationships formed all around us.

Jaime (Jimyung) Kim was born and raised in Korea and moved to the United States when she was eighteen. Jaime works with gouache and acrylics to create illustrations inspired by childhood memories of her family, as well as movies, art, and the outside world. The sun, the moon, the sky, and stars are her favorite things, which is why they always appear in her artwork. Dana Walrath, an anthropologist and artist who has lived and worked all over the world, believes we are all as connected as the ocean and air we share. Her other books include the young adult verse novel Like Water on Stone and the graphic memoir Aliceheimer's. I Am a Bird is her first picture book. When not playing in the waves, she lives in the mountains of Vermont. Visit her at DanaWalrath. com.
