The reader will find the story funny and enjoyable. The characters are wacky, zany, and fun to know. The illustrations are nothing short of spectacular.
Student review: If you like birds and you want to learn about them, then this books is right for you.
None!
Student reviewer: This is not entertaining. It did not have very good details or characters.
This is for kids ages 7 to 10 because it is fairly appropriate and good for book reports. I picked the book because it looked pretty good, sounded fun and inviting, and looked fairly easy to read. I did not like the book because it was confusing, uninteresting, boring, and it wasn't that detailed. The first chapter started out pretty good.
This is a quality piece of work. I would place it in top 10% of children's literature for both the author and the illustrator. It is in a class with The Bee Man Of Orn
In this illustrated chapter book come see what happens when people want to fly!
This book is a humorous fantasy. It is well written and superbly illustrated. It is sure to be regarded as a fun read by its targeted age group and one to which they will frequently return. This work is an example of what quality children’s literature can be.
