Moonshadow's Journey

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Karin Littlewood. A young swan sets off on his first migratory journey with his parents and grandpa. When Grandfather falls during an ice storm, Father takes over as leader. The text, though overly dramatic, is ultimately reassuring. Midnight-blue-toned watercolor illustrations express the curvilinear shapes seen in the night sky and the swan's graceful bodies.
