About the Book

Tour the animal kingdom from a crow's point of view in this whimsical mix of science and poetry from Thor Hanson, acclaimed ornithologist and author of Feathers (13,000 sold combined HC and PB). Acclaimed biologist and ornithologist Thor Hanson's first children's book is the story of Bartholomew Quill, a crow who's trying to figure out what he is. Rather than just a creation myth, it's a legend about biodiversity, identifying characteristics, and the clever and loveable crow. Rhythmic rhymes and a wide variety of Pacific Northwest wildlife make this a fun read-aloud for the whole family. Seattle artist Dana Arnim's watercolor and ink illustrations bring a sense of magic to the natural world.

About the Author :
Thor Hanson is a biologist and author renowned for his adult books about nature (The Impenetrable Forest, The Triumph of Seeds, and Feathers). He won a PNBA Award and The John Burroughs Medal for Feathers, which was also a finalist for the Washington State Book Award. Hanson is a Guggenheim Fellow, a Switzer Environmental Fellow, and sought-after public speaker. Dana Arnim, a northwest native, earned her art degree from the University of Washington. She lives with her husband and family in Seattle and helps lead the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) Western Washington chapter.
