Reissue (1964, Pantheon)
(2) K-3 After a "wishingbird" grants Tico golden wings, the other birds turn against him for being different. Tico gives away his feathers, gaining regular black ones in their place. In this reissue the art has been completely restored, and the colors are once again crisp and vibrant. Tico's wings are printed with metallic gold ink so his feathers shimmer just as they should.
Reviewer: Terri Schmitz | Horn Book Magazine Issue: February, 1965
