Ten Rowdy Ravens by Susan Ewing
Ten ravens set out on a lark. As the pages turn, they steal pretty pearls, picnic in a pickup truck, and pull a predator's tail. Scenarios are fanciful but rooted in ravenhood: collecting shiny things, testing curious objects, getting into garbage, and showing off. The adventures take their numbers down to 1, and they reunite to play the game all over again.
"Not only teaches numbers, but cleverly showcases the impish nature of Corvus corax" * School Library Journal *
"An imaginative romp about our favorite trickster." * Bernd Heinrich, author of Mind of the Raven and Ravens in Winter *
"In Ten Rowdy Ravens, one feels the mischievous nature of the raven in Zerbetz's colorful illustrations and enters the raven's world through Ewing's clear and engaging prose. The Daily Kaw is sure to garner a wide circulation with its 'tongue-in-beak' descriptions of true raven reports." * John Marzluff, Professor, Wildlife Science, University of Washington and coauthor of In the Company of Crows and Ravens *
"A treasure...combines mischief and laughter with accurate information." * Candace Savage, author of Bird Brains *
