10 posts | 4 read
Follow a tiny hummingbird on its journey from Central America to Central Park in a captivating tale with exquisite illustrations echoing the creature's jeweled tones. Tz'unun! Tz'unun! A buzz of wings, a flash of color . . . There's a very special visitor in Granny's garden. It's a hummingbird! And it's just about to begin its long migration, heading north to its nesting ground. Watch as it spreads joy to all who encounter it along its two-thousand-mile trek. In an engaging text sprinkled with facts, zoologist Nicola Davies introduces readers to this valiant bird, lighter than a nickel, while Jane Ray's lush, intricate illustrations, accented in gold Pantone, highlight its jewel-like beauty. More details about hummingbirds, along with a bibliography and an index, are available at the end to budding ornithologists.

I would use this book in my classroom as a way to incorporate science into learning. In my classroom now, there isn't a lot of time for science and social studies. I love to read books to them so reading them nonfiction, informative books is a good way to incorporate multiple subjects into one time.

Within the story encompassed around the story of the hummingbird, there are little hidden facts about hummingbirds that relate the story. It is a great story that follows the journey of different characters as well as a hummingbird.
