THE BOOK
Discover the vibrant world of African birds in this enchanting tale!
Join The Feathered Five on an unforgettable adventure as they navigate the cacophony
of the African savanna.
Enough was enough, the birds woke up grumpy and mad, as they let the noise of the
Hadedas' turn a good start to bad! (We've heard it before, a call on repeat, an annoying
sound that is far from discreet!)
Tired and frustrated, now running late, many birds concerned they might miss a very
special date. For today was a day of great celebration, as they had a party to attend
for the Yellow-billed Kites' homecoming migration.
Excuse after excuse, the exhausted Secretary Bird had a hard time remembering their
reasons for delay.
Will the birds finally arrive for the Yellow-billed Kites' special day?
With stunning illustrations by Rachel Nyman and a heartwarming narrative by
Roslynne Toerien, "The Feathered Five" is a celebration of individuality and diversity.
