Love Birds From Jane Yolen, the author of the Caldecott

From Jane Yolen, the author of the Caldecott Awardwinning book Owl Moon, comes a friendship story about a birdloving boy who meets a birdloving girl in the picture book Love Birds, featuring illustrations by Anna Wilson.Jon loved to listen to birdsong.

Bright cardinals, cawing crows, chatty chickadees, wrens, and jays; barn swallows and doveslullabies.

He especially loved to listen to owls.One night when an owl hoots, throaty and lovely, the boy hoots back in a duet.

And when another owl responds from the nearest pines, the birdloving boy discovers it not a bird at all.

Sometimes the best song is the sound of a new friend.eathers and friendship make for a good pairing in this gentle ode to appreciating both.Kirkus Reviews
