I thought I knew a lot about crows, but this book showed me otherwise.

From the first page, “I spill across the sky like ink—fill the night with jagged cries. I have one thousand eyes…” I was mesmerized by the storyteller, a murder of crows speaking directly to me.

The illustrations are just as absorbing as the narrative as crows huddle and act together to scare off predators through a long, cold winter night. An amazing true story! Plus, the info about crows and how smart they are in the back matter (like how they use tools) adds even more…

From Jilanne's list on picture books about nature that made me say “WOW!!”.
