Description
Summary:	Leyla Torres's beloved picture book The Subway Sparrow playfully engages with issues of big city life and multiculturalism. An English-speaking girl, a Spanish-speaking man, and a Polish-speaking woman might not be able to converse, but when a sparrow trapped in their subway car needs help, their common concern bridges the language barriers between them.
