This month’s book is Feathers for Lunch by Lois Ehlert.f1In Feathers for Lunch, a cat slips out the door and goes on the prowl for a birdie lunch. Luckily, the bell on the cat’s collar warns the birds that danger is near.f2Cooper thought this book was a bit scary. But she was glad all the birds were able to fly away safely in the end.f3She liked the colorful illustrations. She thought the guide at the end of the book was a good way for young readers to learn about the different types of birds that might appear in their neighborhoods.
