Goodreads

This humorous picture book is about a criminal mastermind chickadee that is terrorizing the forest and the residences around the forest. There is a short educational piece at the end of the book that offers fun facts about black-capped chickadees. This book is great for kids ages 4 – 8 or grades K-4. The illustrations complement the plotline and go between full-spread and word-bubbled text. This book would be a great addition to in-class libraries and an excellent animal book for both public and school libraries.
