From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 3-The interesting thing about a honey guide is that it calls to a honey badger or a person and leads the way to a bees' nest, hoping to get a piece of the honeycomb. In this quiet, simply phrased nature lesson, Sayre leads young readers on the quirky bird's trail through the Kenyan bush lands; past elephants, zebra, coiled snake, lion and crocodiles; to a hollow bee tree. Schindler's realistic closeups of these natural scenes, done in watercolor pastels and gouache in shades of brown and soft green on a beige background, will certainly attract the attention of youngsters whose fascination with animals seems insatiable. The Honey Hunters (Candlewick, 1992), a folktale retold by Francesca Martin, also features this unusual bird. It tells how some animals, led by the little guide, refuse to share the honeycomb and become natural enemies as a result. The two titles complement one another; each is excellent in its own right, and both deserve a place on library shelves.
