Each page of this wonderful children's book is dedicated to a separate bird, but what birds they are! You will meet the salt-shaker Shrike, the Ice-Cream-Cone-Coot, the Waterglass-Goose, the High-Button-Boblinks, the Shuttercluck, the Milkbottle midge, and many others. The drawings are lovely, and the language in verse is fun and whimsical, with a touch of magic and humor.
