After revealing the amazing information that there are 300 different kinds of hummingbird, this book then focuses on one of them - the ruby-throated hummingbird - and makes connections with the paths of migration of these tiny creatures and of humans between Central and North America.
Jane Ray’s jewel-like illustrations encourage paying close attention to detail and interact with Nicola Davies’s text which combines elements of intercultural family life with factual information about the hummingbird.

From Nicola Davies, one of the UK's finest non-fiction writers, and from Jane Ray, one of the UK's finest illustrators, comes and exquisite Nature Storybook about ... hummingbirds!
A hummingbird is smaller than your thumb and weighs less than a 20 pence piece - however you measure it, it's tiny. But every spring, hummingbirds that have spent the winter in Mexico fly north to make the most of the warmer weather. They nest as far north as Canada and Alaska; a 2,000 mile trip!
This is the story of one spring migration: of a tiny bird, its amazing journey and the people it meets along the way.
