Description
Vladyana Krykorka brings the arctic world to life with her signature illustration style. This board book focuses on a particular aspect of arctic wildlife — often showing a mother with her young — and pairs lovely watercolor paintings with simple and expressive language. ARCTIC SKY introduces young readers to birds, such as swooping owls and graceful, gliding swans.
