four-stars

This rhyming book takes the form of “The House that Jack Built” and follows the planning, building, and nesting of Carolina Wrens. The text is informative and biologically accurate without being overly detailed or heavy. The illustrations really make the book. The text is good, but the illustrations are gorgeous. The beautiful detail in the line work and the careful use of blended colors really makes this book shine. Recommended for purchase and for readers 3 and up.
