Doctor Bird: Three Lookin' up Tales from Jamaica

34 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-399-22744-X
(3) K-3 In these humorous, well-told, and gently moral tales, Doctor Bird, a clever, "upfull" (optimistic) hummingbird in top hat and flowing tails, convinces Mongoose to stop stealing (for a while); helps Mouse find food and shelter after a storm; and teaches Owl to make peace with being Owl. Wolff's lively illustrations give all the animals lots of personality.
