Recenzii

Mike Unwin and illustrator Jenni Desmond ... know just how to make children's precious imaginations soar.
This non-fiction picture book is a beautifully illustrated, fact-filled goldmine
Each double-page spread summons an outstanding example of migration. We've seen many of them before, such as the epic flights of arctic terns and wandering albatross, but others are less well known
Desmond's art, created with watercolour, acrylic, ink, pencil, and pencil crayon, incorporates a paragraph of additional information about each species. It is her images that make this oversize album stand out
