Reviews
Every spread though is an invitation to children, not only to delight in her vibrant portraits of some feathered friends but also to create some of their own, using their bodies, with paints, crayons, collage materials, modelling clay, dough or anything else they can think of. And then, there are all the various bird sounds too. They'll most definitely relish spreading their wings and trying some swooping like these spotty fliers. * Red Reading Hub *
