The Heron and the Crane

From a beloved author/artist team comes a hilarious love story and parable of misguided pride rolled into oneCrane lives at one end of a swamp and Heron at the other end. One day, Crane realizes he is lonely and thinks it's time he asks Heron to marry him--but life is never simple, and proposing turns out to be more difficult than Crane could ever imagine. One insulting rejection from Heron sends each of them bouncing back and forth, alternately apologizing and shouting--will they ever both want to marry one another at the same time? Hilarious text and gorgeous illustrations make this a delight to read at any age.
