What this book is about
When Princess Shiori's stepmother discovers her forbidden magic, she curses Shiori into the body of a sparrow and transforms her brothers into cranes, silencing her forever. Elizabeth Lim's fairy-tale retelling blends Japanese-inspired world-building with a classic siblings-cursed mythology and a slow-burn romance. Content is clean and appropriate for younger YA readers.
