Wings on the Wind: Bird Poems von Kate Kiesler
This book of poetry is for all the bird lovers out there. Sweet little poems will sure warm the heart. This was not for me though since I am actually terrified of birds.
School Library Journal
Grades 1-5--A fine collection. Many of the poets' names will be familiar-Eleanor Farjeon, Carl Sandburg, Robert Louis Stevenson, Elizabeth Coatsworth, Margaret Wise Brown, Rachel Field-but some are not as well known, and several selections are by anonymous authors. While most of the pieces focus on wild birds, Kiesler has included one about a young girl's pet parakeet and two fanciful pieces-an anonymously written poem about a pirate's parrot and an excerpt from Edward Lear's "The Pelican Chorus." Many of the impressionist full- and double-page oil paintings show charming rural and pastoral scenes, and often include children playing and observing nature. Others feature close-ups of the birds mentioned in the accompanying text. While this is not a first purchase, librarians on the lookout for short, topical anthologies will want to consider it.
