NOTE: Large format-- cannot ship outside U.S. via Flat-Rate envelope; may require additional international postage. 'The intriguing title page of this stunning picture book pulls readers into the story of a lonely boy who views the world from his top-floor city apartment. From the window, he watches and hollers at the pigeons, a twisting river of birds flying patterns above my house. His observations puzzle him: why are they flying all crazy bunched together--making pigeon clouds? It takes Mr. Roderick Jackson Montgomery the Three, who spends his time on the apartment house roof talking to, naming, and dancing with the birds, to help Jawanza understand them and to begin replacing his isolation with friendship. ... The art conveys action and feeling through body pose and facial expression, and the melange of brilliant colors deepens the emotional response. ... A soaring accomplishment.'--Marie Orlando, School Library Journal. Price:
