About the Book

When the last summer flowers open their petals to the slanting sun, it's time for a tiny hummingbird to dip its beak into the heart of each flower, extracting as much nectar as possible before the hard trip ahead. Today is the day Tiny Bird begins its amazing journey south for the winter, traveling as fast as thirty miles an hour for hundreds of miles on end. The trip is long, with savaging weather and many predators along the way, but Tiny Bird is built for this epic journey and eventually arrives at its winter home. This inspiring and informative story celebrates the important role of a small but mighty creature. For animal enthusiasts, future environmentalists, and fans of Katherine Roy's How to Be an Elephant. Christy Ottaviano Books

Review :
A Chicago Public Library Best of the Best Books of the Year Pick "Kids will be mesmerized by this dynamic portrait of one of nature's winged wonders."--Booklist, starred review "The simple narrative is set in short, poetic lines. There's suspense . . . And, there's expressive language, with alliteration, occasional rhyme, and plentiful imagery. A fine addition to "sense of wonder" collections." --Kirkus Reviews "Scientific facts about hummingbird feeding and flight are emphasized in the formative text and the light-and motion-filled illustrations, which skillfully convey the bird's movements." --Horn Book
