Publisher's Synopsis

David Elliott's witty verse takes flight with gorgeous illustrations in an enchanting book for bird lovers of all ages.

Take to the sky to explore a glorious array of all things avian, from the tiny, restless hummingbird to the inscrutable horned owl to the majestic bald eagle. David Elliott and Becca Stadtlander bestow a sense of wonder onto such native birds as the sparrow and the puffin, and capture the exotic beauty of far-flung fowl like the Andean condor, the Australian pelican and the Caribbean flamingo. Concise, clever verse from an award-winning author pairs with striking artwork from a debut illustrator to make this a true pleasure for anyone who loves birds.
