The Reading Tub: Johnny's Pheasant
What a lovely story. Johnny's optimism and enthusiasm jump from the page and will resonate with young readers. The illustrations are exquisite in their simplicity. My favorite is Johnny pretending to fly like a pheasant. That the story moves the reader from sadness to joy is a mark of the exceptional writing.
