US Books > Children's Books > Ages 4-8 > General

This collection of twenty-one bird poems and paintings is an exercise in feathery frivolity. From the familiar roadrunner and common crow to the exotic quetzal and Andean cock-of-the-rock, this unusual aviary of colorful creatures will inform as well as entertain young readers. “Bird lovers, old and young alike, will delight in Florian’s latest offering.”--American Bookseller
