Little Crow loves to sing, and Papa Crow loves his song. But when Little Crow shares his songs with the other birds at the big old tree, they laugh and scatter. Maybe the Mockingbird can teach him to sing songs with the finches, flycatchers, and cardinals and help him make some friends. But Little Crow should be careful what he wishes for…

Using Mockingbird’s tip, Little Crow quickly becomes the most popular bird on the block. But, in a moment of danger, he learns that singing someone else’s song can have terrible consequences and that his own voice and his father’s love is of the greatest value. Paired with colorful collage illustrations, this inspirational story is complemented by fun facts about North American birds and their sounds.

Grades Pre-K to 2.

*Children learn to value themselves and find their own unique voice as they follow the story of Little Crow and how he wants to fit in, but is that always the best thing to do? Learn fun facts about North American Birds and their sounds.*
