City Hawk: The Story of Pale Male

40 pp. | Simon/Wiseman | September, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4169-3359-5 $15.99
(2) K-3 "After Pale Male was sighted near a pond in Central Park...it was clear that he was there to stay." McCarthy details the delight of faithful birdwatchers, depicting them (rather comically) as pop-eyed as her hawks. The caricatures are lively, and McCarthy's rendering of the city is rough yet evocative. Information about Central Park and an author's note extend the story. Bib.
