Overview

Long ago, a boy vanished, a tree was planted, and a town built its identity on silence. Fifty years later, new evidence surfaces - a forbidden stew, a missing investigator, and a bird that sings of murder. As Dortville's museum prepares an exhibit on the legend, history begins repeating itself. Letters, journals, and official reports reemerge, and what once passed for folklore turns uncomfortably factual. The story unfolds through recovered correspondence and firsthand accounts, piecing together a mystery where faith, memory, and guilt intertwine. It is a modern folktale about the price of forgetting - and the strange mercy that sometimes grows from buried roots. The Bird and the Stew is an illustrated children's horror bookinspired by 'The Juniper Tree' by the Brothers Grimm. Told through letters, official reports, town records, and the fragments people leave behind, the story follows Dortville as it confronts a long-forgotten tragedy that once defined its past. Note: Contains mild fantasy violence/peril suitable for most young readers, on par with the original Grimm fairytale that inspired it. Caregiver guidance is recommended
