Snow Birds
by Kirsten Hall
illustrated by Jenni Desmond

Flap Copy Description:
Snowflakes whirling, snow-flocks swirling, 
streaks of white twirl through the night...
You've heard of birds who migrate to warmer climates in the wintertime - but what about those who persevere through snowy weather and freezing temperatures?

My Thoughts:
Wintertime, and snowy weather in particular, is so inspirational to me. So, to read a picture book that deals with beautiful birds that have the tenacity and adaptability to survive in the harsh conditions of the winter months was so exciting. The text and illustrations are both stunning and seem to be perfectly partnered. At the back of the book there's even a glossary of each of the birds included. (The snowy owl is my favorite!)  I highly recommend Snow Birds to readers aged four and up!
