Familius LLC How the Birds Became Friends
Book Synopsis2023 Storytelling World Award honoreeLong ago when the world was very young, the birds did not get along. They were always fighting about who was better. Beaks pecking! Feathers flying! Squawks and screeches everywhere! Little Quail feels lost in all the noise, but with each bird trying to outdo the others, Quail bravely takes an unexpected approach. In this delightful take on a Burmese folktale from award-winning storyteller Noa Baum and illustrated by renowned ecologist and artist Zev Labinger, watch the power of kindness change the world.Trade Review"Noa’s clear, colorful retelling of this simple story reminds us of the simple truth that kindness and acceptance are the basis of friendship and peace. Quail’s surprising act changes everything for all the birds—and reminds us we’re capable of doing the same." —Bill Harley, author and Grammy Award–winning storyteller and musician "Artist and ecologist Labinger knows birds, and it shows. Though rendering them realistically and true to life, he has also managed to imbue each with expressive faces that clearly reveal their feelings." -Kirkus Reviews "With a timely fable about peace and reconciliation among the birds, Noa Baum warms our hearts. Children will clamor to hear this story over and over, and it will be easy to hold their interest with Zev Labinger’s lively and colorful illustrations. While he never strays far from true natural history, Labinger skillfully endows familiar backyard birds with a full array of personalities and individual character. Together, Baum and Labinger have created a book that will entertain and satisfy parent and child alike."—James Coe, author and illustrator of The Eastern Birds Golden Guide and member of the Board of Directors of the Society of Animal Artists "Promoting kindness and humanity without preaching, How the Birds Became Friends is a gentle fable about how small choices make big differences. This benevolent, cheerily illustrated tale uses simple, effective narrative to distill the noise of conflict into the harmony of fellowship. Labinger’s watercolor illustrations brightly depict full-of-personality avian characters without losing their bird-ness. Baum’s retelling of this Burmese folktale lends itself to reading and telling aloud, and this story is sure to find a home in the hearts of young listeners."—Janice M. Del Negro, PhD, professor of Youth Literature, SOIS Dominican University "We could all learn a thing or two from the birds! Noa Baum has updated this classic folktale with a modern perspective to teach a timely lesson: peace can be found when we have the courage to go against the flow and do what is right."—Annette Hoppenworth, director of the Kalamazoo Valley Museum Storytelling Festival "On the surface, this book is a charming start for stimulating young people's interest in birds. Of course, the underlying message is even more important, especially in these times."—Robert Bateman, world-renowned wildlife artist and founder of the Bateman Foundation for Environmental Education "It’s my strong belief that nature conservation has to go hand in hand with environmental education, starting with children as soon as they can talk! The skillful and colorful illustrations of Zev Labinger and the inspiring story of Noa Baum told in an original way give a message of friendship, peace, the beauty of nature, and the variety of birdlife. Messages like these are so much needed all around the globe."—Ysbrand Brouwers Sr., founder and director of Artists for Nature Foundation "Join Quail and Crow for an adventure of allyship, a calling for camaraderie, as the two birds risk vulnerability but gain something far more valuable. Noa Baum’s fable of friendship could not be timelier, as we all must do better at seeing the human universals in our values and lives. Zev Labinger’s colorful illustrations dance the perfect line between folk art and scientific illustration, as his owls and magpies are equal parts charming and relatable."—Allen M. Fish, director of the Golden Gate Raptor Observatory "Birds have the marvelous ability to bring people together and raise the awareness for protecting our shared environment. This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of courage and peace through the amazing world of birds and 'dove-tails' perfectly with my lifelong work under the motto “Birds Know No Boundaries.”—Yossi Leshem, professor at Tel Aviv University and founder of the Israeli Ornithological Center of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel "The power of artworks to enhance a story is something to celebrate. Through splashes of color and meaningful gestures, Zev Labinger’s vibrant illustrations add depth and meaning to Noa Baum’s retelling of the Burmese folktale in How the Birds Became Friends."—Kathy Kelsey Foley, director of Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum

Robinson concludes with a wide-angle view of growing trees and the children flying a kite, implying a return to carefree fun and putting a poignant distance between the tiny figures and readers." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Robinson's sensitive new mixed-media art, with its personality-rich quartet of young people...and its city-park setting, elicits the children's deeply felt emotions and their actions to honor the bird's memory." -- Horn Book Magazine "The original text is timeless, and the modern, cheerful illustrations will help resurrect this classic for a new generation of readers." -- ALA Booklist "Robinson thoughtfully pays homage to his predecessor while bringing something new to the telling...a lovely book befitting its lineage." -- School Library Journal

Book SynopsisTrade Review“The mixed media drawings, alive with wonderful textures and soft colors, show Mel executing an impressive aerial somersault before blithely hurtling headfirst in parallel with the tree trunk as inhabitants below are thrown into comic panic, convinced that Mel’s dive-bombing will result in disaster…. ‘Hope’ may be the thing with feathers, but Mel proves that ‘gutsy’ can be, too.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Young people, who find themselves on the precipice of new activities, routines, schools, and challenges so frequently, will savor this little kingfisher’s success and perhaps feel they can right themselves the next time they fall into a downward spiral….Encourages children to feel brave, to try, and to believe they can soar.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “There’s a good deal of humor in this lighthearted story; a slug keeps promising to help but never makes it far, and a fly is liberated (“I’m free!”) from the spider’s web when Mel falls through it. Tabor’s relaxed, loose-lined illustrations capture the energy of the fall as well as Mel’s endearing, determined personality.” — Horn Book (starred review) “Heartening fare for nestlings facing plunges of their own.” — Booklist “Clever wordplay and lively narration give this immediate appeal, while the unique composition and dynamic mixed-media art confer buoyant energy. Audiences will appreciate Mel’s no-nonsense, can-do attitude, and aspiring birdwatchers will find a few fun facts in the author’s note.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

HarperCollins Publishers Inc Nesting
Book SynopsisAward-winning author-illustrator Henry Cole soars to new heights in this stunning picture book about robins: their homes, their lives, and their families.In this black-and-white picture book highlighted with robin’s egg blue, the reader will follow two robins as they build a nest with twigs and grass.Trade Review"Beautiful, informative, and appropriate to the audience. Robin's-egg blue highlights this account of an American robin family's year. [The] bright color contrast[s] arrestingly with [the] black-and-white surroundings. Cole varies the design from vignettes and panels to full- and double-page spreads. The relatively simple text, expressed in short sentences, is very accessible, and the natural history is accurate. Aimed at a younger audience, this conveys essential information." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Cole’s fine-line drawings—black-and-white, with occasional washes of robin’s-egg blue—use short, agitated lines and layered hatching to richly render the birds’ world." — Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Scenes of incredible detail and beauty. Though considered fiction, everything in this story is true to nature, which is unsurprising considering Cole’s past as a science teacher. He uses limited but smoothly written text to describe a year in these robins’ lives. The arresting artwork is large enough to share in a group setting, but youngsters will also want to pore over its many details." — Booklist (starred review) "Cole’s nature sketches reveal a keen eye and hand. A stellar offering. Nature lovers of all ages will enjoy this beautiful, informative book." — School Library Journal (starred review) "Cole illustrates a pair of robins, employing gentle black-and-white crosshatching and one dramatic pop of color: the signature deep robins’-egg blue of the eggs. Uncomplicated language describes the nesting process, while illustrations both mirror and extend the text. [A] solidly scientific account." — Horn Book Magazine

Tilbury House,U.S. Waiting for a Warbler
Book Synopsis Short listed for the Green Earth book awardTrade Review"Waiting for a Warbler is perfect for young birdwatchers and nature lovers. They will likely want to return to it again and again." -- Roberta - Wrapped in Foil"In early spring, Owen and his younger sister, Nora, are outdoors talking about migratory birds in general and watching for her favorite, the cerulean warbler, in particular. The locale shifts from the U.S. or Canada to the Yucatán Peninsula, where many bird species, and one cerulean warbler male in particular, gather and prepare to migrate northward. The narrative traces the path of these birds as they make their way in a tiring migration that includes a perilous 18-hourflight over the Gulf of Mexico. Later, Owen and his family often watch two cerulean warblers as they arrive in spring, nest in a tall backyard tree, hunt for insects, and raise their young. A wildlife painter, Brooks illustrates a variety of subjects skillfully, from close-ups of individual birds to a stormy seascape. The book’s extensive back matter introduces novices to bird-watching and suggests ways of protecting birds. Written with a friendly tone, the text incorporates more facts than most fictional picture books. For kids who enjoy observing birds, here’s an informative introduction to bird-watching." -- Carolyn Phelan - Booklist" Mr. Collard, a prolific writer whose books often have a scientific bent, is also an avid birder. He and his son have a blog, Father Son Birding, and the book Warblers and Woodpeckers is based on their adventures. In this book, illustrated in soft, nature tinted watercolors, we meet Owen and Nora, who are looking forward to seeing a cerulean warbler in their yard in the spring. They have made their yard an inviting place for the birds to visit, planting native trees and plants so that the birds will have enough insects to eat and places to stay. We also see the migration of the birds from the tropical forests to the US. When a storm threatens the Gulf of Mexico, the children worry that this might cause harm to many of the birds during their travels. Luckily, the cerulean warbler and other birds make it through, and Owen and Nora are able to observe them and take notes in their nature journals. End notes include information on birding, ways to help protect birds, and resource lists that include books and websites. Like his other excellent titles, Hopping Ahead of Climate Change: Snowshoe Hares, Science and Survival, Insects: The Most Fun Bug Book Ever, and Fire Birds, Mr. Collard uses his talents to combine fiction with lots of information about environmental issues. This picture book is for younger readers than most of his books, but still presents information in a way that is easy to grasp. I'm a big proponent of teaching children about nature from a very young age; I have a bee garden in my library and have worked with the local parks department to donate native trees to the park behind my house. It's good to see a picture book that espouses environmental responsibility in such an engaging way.
