Synopsis
Some birds are big, some birds are small, and some birds are just incredibly tall.
Some birds are caged, but most birds are FREE. A much better life, I’m sure you’ll agree!
Swooping and squawking, flapping and fluttering, there are many different kinds of birds in the world, all with their own special traits and abilities. Some Birds celebrates the colors and shapes of beaks and feathers with a rollicking, rhyming text and intricate design. The lively illustrations with a mod, retro feel are full of style and mesmerizing detail.
Some Birds is a lovely gift that will have children and adults tweeting for more from a promising new talent in the design world.

Reviews
PreS-Gr 1—While the mosaic birds in Spink's debut picture book waddle, hop, and pop (when they eat too many worms), they look out at readers with wide-eyed stares. Their feathers are replaced with intricate patterns, but their colors hint at their identity. The red, white, and black bird that is rat-a-tat-tatting a hole in a tree is a woodpecker, and the large blue bird with the white head is an eagle. The rest of them could be wild songbirds, pet birds, or ducks, but the one thing they have in common with humans is revealed at the back of the book, and it will resonate with all readers. VERDICT Storytime audiences will be encouraged to guess the rhyming words and imitate the actions of the birds; an engaging addition.—Tanya Boudreau, Cold Lake Public Library, AB, Canada
