Arlo & Pips #1 King of the Birds

Ages 6 to 10, Grades 1 to 5

With his giant-size brain, Arlo the crow can do amazing things! Thank goodness for his pal, Pips, who can remind him not to be such a show-off!

Moving to the big city sure can be hectic for a crow on his own. Everywhere you turn—noisy humans, lots of litter, and plenty of competition for French fries!Fortunately, Arlo is a crow with some impressive tricks up his sleeve: big brain, great ideas, and a new pal named Pips, who helps Arlo discover the city, the beach, and the biggest collection of shiny things ever. This first book in a series of graphic chapter books for fans of Narwhal and Jellyfish offers adventure, fun, and lots of great bird facts—each marked with a star on the page. From acclaimed author-illustrator Elise Gravel.
