The Starling's Song

Octavie Wolters, translated by Michele Hutchison

Flying above the land, the starling is enchanted with everything he sees. He sings about the beauty in nature to anyone who will listen. Everyone he sings to has something that is important to them which they ask the starling to include in his song. In black and white with splashes of yellow, this picture book has unique linocut illustrations and poetic text which builds nicely. It was awarded the Silver Brush for best illustrated children’s book in the Netherlands in 2022.

Ages 3-6
