Review Detail

This was a delightfully entertaining book to learn facts about the Amazonian Hoatzin bird. The illustrations were bright and had a fun cartoon quality. It was written from the perspective of a baby hoatzin learning from its parent all the neat adaptions it can use to survive. Normally, if a book is nonfiction I prefer real photographs, but the illustrations and style of the story were perfect to keep me wondering if being stinky was not the superpower then what was the superpower. I found out this bird is unusual for many reasons and each was quite neat. This book is perfect for animal/bird lovers and all curious readers who want to know more about the creatures that live on Earth.
