Aviary Wonders Inc. Spring Catalog and Instruction Manual by Kate Samworth

5.0

I picked this up because it won the first Kirkus prize for young people's literature. It a super fun sort-of picture book that is a catalog and assembly manual for some very strange birds. Samworth's lettering is beautiful and the birds are so fun and silly. I'm not really sure what age group this would be best for, because it doesn't really read like a picture book. It's kind of like a kid non-fiction book, except that it's pretty goofy and definitely fiction. Maybe I'll just jump in and pitch it to some kids and see what they think.
