review:
'Johnny's Pheasant' by Cheryl Minnema with illustrations by Julie Flett is a picture book about a boy, his grandmother and a pheasant.

When Johnny and his grandmother are driving back from the store, Johnny spots a pheasant lying in the grass. Johnny wants to care for it, grandmother thinks it is dead, but the feathers can be used for her crafts, so they take it home. When the pheasant surprises them both, there is humor and respect for living creatures.

I really enjoyed this gentle story about a boy and his grandmother and the creature they encounter. I liked the story of respecting nature and the surprising humor found within. The illustrations are really very nice.

I received a review copy of this ebook from University of Minnesota Press and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
