This is the second book by Susie Finkbeiner set in the Vietnam War era that I have read. Both were excellent, deserving of more than five stars. The Nature of Small Birds is about three generation of a close knit family, focusing on the impact adopting a preschooler who arrived in America from Vietnam via Operation Baby Lift had on each of them. As with most family relationships there was a mixture of pleasure and pain, but most of all there was love and acceptance. For one family member in particular the acceptance was a long time in coming as it entailed allowing the grief over losing a son to the war to settle. Emotions are intense and run deep in this novel. Readers will find their lives touched by Minh and her family. Finkbeiner is a master of utilizing the time-slip genre to enhance the tale.
I give this book my highest recommendation, and am grateful to have received a complimentary copy from Revell via Library Thing without obligation. All opinions expressed her are my own.
