Flying high above us, or landing at our feet; chattering in the park and wheeling in the air; in the forest and the plain, the land and the sea, the city and the country, birds live alongside us, with our world, and their world, touching and meeting in a special kind of many-voiced, many-winged magic... Bird's Eye View is an enchanting, funny and touching short collection of poetry and prose by award-winning writer Sophie Masson and pictures by acclaimed illustrator Lorena Carrington, vividly illuminating the world of birds, and the world as seen by birds. A perfect little gift book for any occasion. AUTHOR: Sophie Masson is an award-winning, internationally-published author of over 70 books, for children, young adults and adults.
