I like this book because there are all different kinds of birds that have different colors and they see this other kind of bird that has the color of black and they don't like him. Then a gray bird wants some of his color and then the other birds want's some too. So now they like black bird.

It's kinda funny they didn't like him until they saw how his colors stood out in the sun.

I really like this book because it is a cool way to say that you like black birds. BEAUTIFUL BLACKBIRD is a cool book because I never saw such a passion for birds and I like it that he likes using paper for books. I love this book!
