Little Swan

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kristina Rodanas. London chronicles the first months of Ko-hoh, a trumpeter swan, from hatching in the North American lake country to his family's departure south for the winter. Accompanied by realistic-looking colored-pencil over watercolor-wash paintings, the narrative highlights dramatic moments, such as Ko-hoh's comical first attempt at feeding and his escape from a grizzly bear. An author's note supplies additional information.
