“A breathtakingly beautiful book that shows how even a tiny bit of virtue can overcome any darkness.”
—Dustin Brady, author of Superhero for a Day
After falling from an angel’s wing, a tiny feather drifts past the boundaries of Heaven and into the mortal realm below. No longer common and unnoticed, the steadfast little feather kindles miraculous changes during its encounters on earth—and also in the dark, terrible place that lies beneath.
A masterfully written story with beautiful illustrations, The Feather follows a journey that will lift your spirit and fill your heart. Perfect for readers of any age, it reminds us that even a small amount of virtue shines brightly in the darkness.
“From these windows shone the earth’s nearest suggestion of that place above: a grandmother’s smile was the distant kin of the faces of angels; a baby’s slumber, in the lap of a loving mother, was the glimmer of Heaven’s content in a lesser world.”

The Feather opens with this inspiring quote from ancient philosopher Lucius Annaeus Seneca:
“Tribulation takes nothing away from virtue; it may seem to shine with less brilliancy, but it becomes no smaller. Like the sun when eclipsed, it still puts forth its strength.”
“No longer was the feather a common and unnoticed thing; it was now unusual and precious, a star against the somber dusk, and the forests themselves looked up to watch as it slid, radiant and shimmering, down the sky.”
