A super cute and warm fuzzy book about a scarecrow and a crow. Would make a great fall story for elementary children.

A sweet story about a lasting friendship between a crow and a scarecrow proving that with some loving kindness we can still be friends with those who are our adversaries. After scarecrow nurses a baby crow back to health, the crow flies off and the scarecrow is broken hearted. But the next spring, the crow returns to his old friend. The gentle rhyme makes it perfect to use as a read aloud.
