York Public Library

A Bit About A Book:
ONLY A LITTLE WHILE HERE by María Ospina Pizano

"...Ospina trains our attention on the lives of five creatures: a migratory songbird dazzled by city lights, an orphaned porcupine saved by kindness, two dogs grieving the loss of their human companions, and a determined beetle transported to a vast, unimaginable world. The surprising drama of their lives reveals the fragility and power of belonging, and what it means to create or lose a home."
