Have you ever heard Of the Little Red Bird Who lived in a cage Made of gold?

She had all she could need She had water and seed And plenty to read I've been told.
Pictures
lavender-lit are a marvelous fit for this story that’s told all in
rhyme. When you choose your own way, there’s a price you must pay— it’s
a quandary as old as all time.
••April 15, 2008 Kirkus Reviews
Bruel, author
of Bad Kitty (2005), does a good job of spinning a rather sophisticated theme
in a kid-friendly manner, inviting children to ponder the bird's dilemma with a
repeated refrain: “I wonder what YOU would do?”
••April 15, 2008 Booklist
In Bruel’s frequent cartoon scenes and vignettes, the players display a
supple solidity as they smile, scowl or look confused according to
their assigned roles.
•• KIRKUS REVIEW
Bruel does such a masterful job of depicting the blobby cast that early-reader graduates
can’t help but break out in giggles.
