Children of all ages will love this book. A funny and heartwarming story that also happens to be true! Sondra Perry creates pictures with her words as we follow the true adventures that all started one day with a visit of a Great Blue Heron to the author's backyard. With well-crafted prose appropriate for children, Perry's book takes us on an educational journey of suspense, surprise, and the values of kindness, love, and caring that truly matter in life. The book is also filled with beautiful watercolor illustrations. Henry the Heron is connecting children with nature through his story and is still visiting the author to this day ~ going on 11 years now.
