The brilliant birds roost and strut in this expandable accordion
book that provides a three-dimensional view of a scene from a
Latin-American folktale. This charming bilingual adaptation,
beautifully illustrated by Eleanor Spiess-Ferris, tells the story of
how these birds, once drab and grey, got their colorful plumage.
The tale, in both English and Spanish, introduces young readers
to birds both real and imagined, and teaches a lesson of patience.
