Members Reviews:
Saving the Upworld can be treacherous
Jocker should have known that his curious stubborn little sister Bivy would get them into trouble. Such is the life of an older brother. In fairness to Bivy the thunderstorm was the one to blame for knocking both Jocker and his sister out of their nest. So begins the perilous journey of the two young Cardinals. In their nest high above the ground they'd heard of the scary cat and knew that 'Giants' lived in the big house. But who would have known that rats and spiders had names AND could talk. Or that they would face the infamous Ant Queen who knew all about the 'Laws of Nature'-- laws that did not seem to bode well for the little birds in their current predicament. This is a tale that will delight children and adults alike. The dialogue is clever, the characters are charming, and the situation calls for wisdom and heroism. Thank goodness for Jocker and Bivy. A great start to what is sure to be an engaging series. Read and enjoy!
clever and imaginative character perspective complements the storytelling
A clever and imaginative character perspective complements the storytelling and introduces readers to Jocker and Bivy: two young and adventurous cardinals. When they have decided to save their home by eliminating the carpenter ant queen, they meet several different creatures, and must learn to reason, befriend and persevere to complete their task.
While there are some scary moments, there is nothing that isn't quickly and happily resolved for the main characters, so sleepless nights aren't an issue. Additionally - both of the books in the series that I have read are simple to read - perfect for new `chapter readers'. It was a clever little story, showing the importance of making friends, being brave and standing with your friends and family.
I purchased this eBook with specific intention of using during the Children Read week at I am Indeed. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
Beautifully written and lots of fun
A bird falling from its nest triggers a compelling tale of nature and reciprocity as brother and sister cardinals leave the treetops to deal with life on the ground in a land of âgiantsâ and face the army ants threatening to destroy their world. It had me hooked and rooting all the way for the little critters. This book is beautifully written and has a lyrical quality fitting for a classic fable. Fun for kids and for grownups seeking to rekindle a bit of lifeâs innocent magic through a story filled with simple wondrous charm.
