Reviews
PreSchool-Grade 1?Winging her way toward the nesting grounds with the rest of the flock, Fiona the flamingo misses an important left turn, gets tossed about in a storm, and winds up aboard Rappin' Cap'n Otter's banana boat. The kindly sailor paints a fierce face on Fiona's newly laid egg to protect it from predators and points the expectant bird toward Bolivia; off she splashes, cradling her egg and rapping like the Cap'n: "Yo, condor brother,/one bird to another,/help me find my flock/before I'm a mother!" It's a near thing, but she reaches the right beach just as little Floyd hatches. If Remkiewicz's lame rap doesn't set readers giggling, the sight of Fiona, stalking gamely through simply rendered cartoon jungle scenes clutching her toothy, scowling egg, certainly will. Another antic tale from the author of The Bone Stranger (Lothrop, 1994).?John Peters, New York Public Library
