Invite young readers into a moving story of courage, hope, and divine love with The Sparrow Who Fell to the Ground, a beautifully written and illustrated picture book by bestselling author Anthony DeStefano.
This touching tale follows a tiny sparrow born in the “Valley of Tears,” fearful to fly because of his broken wing. Watching the world from below, he longs for the sky but fears the fall. One day, he gathers his courage, spreads his wings, and begins a journey that will transform him — teaching lessons of perseverance, trust, and the quiet workings of grace.
Richly illustrated by New York Times bestselling artist Richard Cowdrey, this book blends humor, adventure, and spiritual depth. Inspired by the Gospel of Matthew, it explores themes of suffering, redemption, and the way God uses our weaknesses to draw us toward Him.
A modern classic in the making, The Sparrow Who Fell to the Ground is a meaningful gift for children, families, classrooms, or anyone needing a reminder that no fall is final — and that grace always lifts us higher.
