Nonfiction Monday Contribution by GatheringBooks

Hi! Thank you so much for hosting. I also like the inspired way in which the Hummingbird book used quilts as an art-design - I haven't seen that done in any of the picture books I've read so far, I must check that book out.

This is our Nonfiction Monday contribution over at GatheringBooks: Pablo Neruda, Poet of the People - a picturebook by Monica Brown and Julie Paschkis.

I enjoyed over the weekend: Django: World's Greatest Jazz Guitarist by Bonnie Christensen and have posted about it at http://bit.ly/pvJJ8b.

Thank you for hosting today! And I am delighted to find this hummingbird book for several people whom I know that "feed" them and get great enjoyment from watching them!
