Sereena’s
Secret, Searching for Home
By
Rae Ann Harris and David Weintraub
Greena
Sereena loves her little island. But one day, a volcano explodes
and she and her green-feathered friends must flee
to another land far away, where green colored birds are forbidden
to live. Sereena disguises herself so the other birds think
she’s one of them. But when spring comes, Sereena has
a baby bird, a green baby bird. Her secret is out and her friends
cannot believe their eyes. But Sereena realizes she has nothing
to be ashamed about and indeed her friends have their own secrets
and their feathers are not as pure as they pretend.
Through this universal allegorical story children learn that
by accepting differences, people can learn to live together
without giving up their identity or their beliefs. The story
is written bi-lingually in English and Yiddish allowing children
of all ages and backgrounds to enjoy this tale of universal
acceptance. Pitspopany
