Synopsis

Howie goes head to head with his cantankerous neighbor Mrs. Hatcher who uses a tennis racquet to swing at the hummingbirds in her garden. A great admirer of hummers and fearful for their lives, Howie tries to figure out why Mrs. Hatcher behaves as she does and how to stop her. Does he? Howie's Hungabird Dilemma is the heart-warming story of his love of hummingbirds and his quest to stop Mrs. Hatcher from harming his favorite little bird. His little sister Carole Ann jumps into the fray as well. Literally! This is the fifth of Sandy's children's gardening books with a plot. It's jam-packed with gardening and hummingbird facts, glossary, and a list of some favorite hummer flowers. Children, parents, and teachers alike will love the book with its beautiful illustrations by artist Casie Trace, her first children's picture book. Howie's Hungabird Dilemma is a 34-page, 8x10" full color book, softbound, and perfect for children 5-10 years old. $12. Sandy Baker's other books include Mrs. Feeny and the Grubby Garden Gang, Zack's Zany Zucchiniland, The Dead Butterflies Diary, Color My Garden and Colorea Mi Jardin (coloring books in English and Spanish), and now Howie. Look for her sixth book, Three Sisters Garden, in Fall 2014.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Sandy Baker combines two of her passions, writing and gardening, into her children's gardening books with a plot. Two years ago, when she moved from the country into town, she left behind seventy hummingbirds. The new home and garden came with none, that is, until she planted salvia, rosemary, hollyhocks, Island Snap Dragon, and hung up a feeder. Now, four hummers grace Sandy’s garden. Her garden is jammed with as many flowers as possible to attract birds, bees, butterflies, and bugs. Sandy has been a member of the Sonoma County (CA) Master Gardener program since 2000. Armed with lots of good gardening info from the MG program, she began writing children's gardening books in 2010. She also enjoys traveling with her husband and takes scads of photographs, especially of beautiful gardens. You can see plenty more about gardening, hummingbirds, and butterflies on Sandy’s kid-friendly website www.sandybakerwriter.com.
