Look at the birds! : Canada / by Peng, Xiaofang.;
"Look at the Birds! is a sweet story about a robin family-a Robin Mommy, a Robin Daddy and a whole revolving nest of robin children. It tracks the family's evolution, from building the nest and hatching the eggs, to feeding the baby birds, singing to them and watching over their growth until, at last, they are ready to leave home. Throughout, Robin Daddy and Robin Mommy show their love for their babies, especially the loving Birdie Daddy. Accompanied by the author's real-life photos of robins in her yard, Look at the Birds! takes flight with its lovely story-about a bird's life cycle, yes, but also about sacrifice and care, family, and the enduring power of love."--from Amazon.

Black river / by Roy, Nilanjana S.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references.It takes a village to kill a child. The village of Teetarpur outside Delhi, is famous for nothing until one of its children is found dead, hanging from the branch of a Jamun tree. In the largely Hindu village, suspicion quickly falls on an itinerant Muslin man, Mansoor. It's up to the local policeman Sub-Inspector Ombir Singh to get to the truth. With only one officer under him, and only a single working revolver between them, can he bring justice to a grieving father and an angry village - or will Teetarpur demand vengeance instead?
