Birds
Written by Kevin Henkes and illustrated by Laura Dronzek — with illustrations by a fellow artist
Birds come in all sizes, shapes, and colors. Birds are magic. Birds are everywhere. If you listen very carefully you will hear them, no matter where you live. And if you look very closely you will see them, no matter where you are. And if you can’t go outside right this minute, you can always read this book!
