About the Author:
Saviour Pirotta was born and educated in Malta. In 1982, he moved to England and spent eight years working as a storyteller for the Commonwealth Institute, visiting schools and libraries around Britain. He has written over 60 books for children and adults, including Turtle Bay which won a number of awards. His work has been translated into 15 languages. He lives in Yorkshire. Stephen Butler trained at Bath Academy of Arts. He now works as a freelance illustrator and tutor in Art and Design at Tower Hamlets College. He lives in London.
From Publishers Weekly:
Whimsy and simplicity are the essence of this beguiling book, the ideal remedy for an indecisive day. Pirotta and Butler have fashioned a totally childlike pastoral excursion in which the peppy protagonist questions a variety of creatures, "What can I do today?" Each respondent suggests characteristic activities (the duck proposes paddling; the cow, munching; etc.) and the bird attempts to follow suit. The charm here lies primarily in the appropriately rudimentary illustrations--beginning with the appealing avian, a circular blue creature (always viewed in profile) with spindly black legs, a round, oversized eye, a wing outlined in white and a bright yellow beak. The other characters are equally amiable, and the sunny scenery looks as though it came from a school pageant. A perfectly perky performance. Ages 2-up.
