Description
|
|
|
|
The sun is setting, and a weary tawny eagle continues to soar and search over the vast Serengeti Plain of Africa, in this atmospheric picture book for readers and listeners up to 7. Though this eagle father has been hunting all day, he will not stop until he finds food for his young chick. Hippos lounge, cobras slither, lions prowl, zebras gallop, rhinos graze, dik-diks scurry, and still the eagle searches in the poetically spare text, while lush two-page paintings—first in oranges and then in deepening blues—imagine the adventures and dangers the eagle faces. "The setting is a big part of the drama in this large picture book about an eagle's search for prey in the Serengeti wildlife refuge in Tanzania.... Long notes at the back about the eagle and about the Serengeti will fascinate young animal lovers."—Booklist
