Cranky, Crabby Crow (Saves the World)

Cranky, crabby Crow does NOT want to play with Squirrel or do loop-de-loops with Hummingbird. He doesn’t have time for Rat or Bat. From high atop a telephone pole, Cat warns Crow that he will soon be all alone if he turns his friends away with his very cranky “kaw!” one more time. But, unbeknownst to all, Crow has bigger, world-saving fish to fry—he must protect planet Earth from an asteroid headed our way!
Beautifully illustrated and sure to have kids giggling, Corey R. Tabor, the Caldecott Honor artist and three-time Geisel Award winner, once again explores age-appropriate social and emotions themes from a new perspective and with subtlety and silliness.
Full-color illustrations were drawn on a tablet, printed out on an old laser printer, then scanned back in and colored digitally.
