In the dark,
the yellow-crowned night heron
looms
on one leg
waiting for fish.In words that ring with poetic vigor and in pictures that glow with humor and strength, award-winning artist Leonard Baskin creates a companion volume to his Caldecott Honor Book Hosie's Alphabet. Never before has a great artist's love of birds in all their full splendor been more excitingly rendered. And the Baskin's haunting words complement this fine gallery.
