Description

Carmen and Angelo, a pair of rascally ravens, descend on Hattie Greystone's farm stead and take whatever they want from her garden. They tease her dog, Buster, steal kindling from her wood pile, and "borrow" her scarf to line their nest. But when Dink, the last of their chicks to hatch, falls out of the nest, Hattie and Buster nurse him back to health. The ravens must then ask where Dink really belongs, with them or with his new-found friends? This wonderfully written children's book immerses kids on the wild adventures of Carmen and Angelo through the beautiful illustrations.
