The Scarecrow by Beth Ferry

5.0

Oh my word. I don't even know where to start with this book.

The illustrations are STUNNING. It conveys the story so beautifully....which makes me wonder if there is any Caldecott contention for it. No seriously. I felt the pain of the scarecrow when he is lonely. I felt his joy with the baby crow. Oh my goodness.

It's also a story about loving the unlovable. About how there is more to a person than meets the eye. I want to do this book in My First Books and see how it translates.
