When a lonely fisherman finds an injured bird on his boat, he nurtures it back to health and--since the bird can no longer migrate with its family--charts a course to head south for the winter.
Together, the two form a special friendship and enjoy life at sea until both the healing process and the journey must come to an end.
In the tradition of the classic Amos & Boris , South is a story about making new friends and the bittersweet process of saying good-bye to the ones we love.
It beautifully depicts the power of new beginnings and the freedom in coming home.
