    This paper proposes a reflectionon the role of reading as a tool for resilienceand identity reconstruction when facing thepsychological challenges raised by migration.After a qualitative investigation into theopinion of a small group of child psychiatristsand psychologists regarding the contributionof reading to the grief process inherent tomigration, in the light of their responses, thechildren's book Pássaro que voa was analyzed.This title was chosen based on two criteria:being a recent publication in Portugaland being available in public libraries localto the area where the study took place -and, therefore, being available to the regionalpopulation free of charge and in an equalmanner. Almost all of the themes identifiedby the professionals as relevant to the migrantchild - such as identity issues, respectfor differences, social exclusion, losses, longing,grief, and hope - are present in this literarywork. We believe that this and othersimilar books, by approaching disruptive topicsand validating feelings of loss, fear, and unfamiliarity- may contribute to the creationof a more empathetic and truly interculturalsociety.
