Review Quotes




Opal is devastated when her house is not deemed "fun and creative" enough for first place but learns there are more important prizes to be won. -Foreword Reviews

This encouraging exploration of perseverance reveals that we all have plenty of imagination--and much to offer... Onomatopoeia relentlessly pursues some industrious campers as they strive to create the most imaginative birdhouse--ever...Matheis' short, readable paragraphs follow Opal from the highs of expectation to the lows of defeat--and back up again to the satisfaction of having created a working birdhouse...Arrayás' perky illustrations populate the story with a diverse cast of energetic characters. A short appendix features some bird habitats from around the world. --Kirkus Reviews

An excellent example of a picture book that is not only entertaining but also socially responsible and beautifully considered. -Children's Book Review
