Synopses & Reviews
Twenty-nine bird species are spotlighted in this carefully rendered collection, where bluebirds frame the letter "B," an ibis stands as high as the letter "I," a curious umbrella bird perches on the letter "U," and an "S" curves around the bodies of three mute swans. Additional varieties include:
American Avocet Cardinal
Duck (Mallard) Egret
Goldfinch Painted Bunting
Quetzal Toucan
Warbler Xenops
. . . and the multi-striped Zebra Finch.
As a bonus, a lovely two-page spread features a quartet of winged creatures perched on the branches of a flowering tree. Identifying captions accompany each delightful drawing.
