Bird of Fire by Don Simpson
When my wife and I had boy/girl twins, our Chinese friends called it 'Dragon and Phoenix coming to earth'. I painted a phoenix for my daughter.

The Fire Bird seems distinct from the Egyptian/Greek Phoenix and the Chinese Fenghuang, but the stories all seem to be inspired by the same creature.
Don Simpson wrote this song inspired by the book 'In the Forests of Serre' by Patricia A. McKillip, in which the protagonist is enchanted by a firebird:
