Song of the Swallows

Link to Amazon
As the book begins we meet young Juan, an eager young boy who likes to talk with the old bell ringer at his local mission, Julian. After watching the sparrows and their babies grow, Juan is saddened when they leave for the winter. Juan spends his time in the mission gardens. Soon the sparrows return and the mission is a happy place for Juan once again.
