Hummingbird by Nicola Davies and illustrated by Jane Ray*

Lavish, colorful illustrations make this book breathtaking.  I loved the end pages which display a variety of hummingbirds. 
A young girl is visiting her granny in Central America where they feed the hummingbirds.  As the girl flies home to New York City, the hummingbirds begin their own migration.  The reader experiences this incredible journey with the hummingbird, ending up in NYC with the little girl. 
Beautiful figurative language only enhances the narration. 
Smaller text nestled within the illustrations share additional facts about the hummingbird and its migration. 
*Highly recommend.
