Long ago, Blackbird was voted the most beautiful bird in the
forest. The other birds, who were colored red, yellow, blue,
and green, were so envious that they begged Blackbird to paint
their feathers with a touch of black so they could be beautiful
too. Although Black-bird warns them that true beauty comes from
within, the other birds persist and soon each is given a ring
of black around their neck or a dot of black on their wings—
markings that detail birds to this very day.This folktale
is brought to life by Ashley Bryan's bold cut paper
illustrations.Book, 40 pages.
