George Flies South
Winter is coming and it’s time to fly south.
“You must fly,” says his Mum, but George isn’t ready to leave his nest.
An inspirational story of a little bird who loses his nest, but finds his wings.
”This story began when I was in France, sitting outside a cafe.
On the other side of the street was a row of trees, one of them had a nest in it.
I wondered what would happen if the nest with a small bird inside, slipped out
of the tree and fell on to the roof of a parked car.
Then I wondered what might happen if someone
got in the car and drove away with the nest and the small bird still on the roof.
I made a little series of pictures depicting all this at the time.
Years later, I came across these drawings again and decided to develop them into a story.”
