The King of Birds - by Helen Ward (Hardcover)

This beautifully illustrated picture book tells a traditional tale of hundreds of birds gathering to choose a king.

The birds cannot decide on the king's qualifications, so they settle on the one who can fly the highest.

However, a small wren outsmarts them all.

With stunning pen-and-ink illustrations colored with watercolors and gouache, this book is a feast for both the eyes and ears.

The informative appendix lists all of the birds that appear, making it a great read-aloud for storytime and a valuable resource for learning about different species of birds.

Don't miss out on this charming tale of avian competition!
