(4) K-3 Illustrated by Peter Sylvada. Two boys who live thousands of miles apart, on a North American farm and in a South American rainforest, stop to listen to the same thrush that migrates between the boys' homes. This intriguing look at the connections between people in distant lands is somewhat marred by the text's oratorical tone. Dramatic oil paintings enrich the story.
Reviewer: Jim St. Claire
