Is This Panama? by Jan Thornhill

This picture book tells the story of Sammy's, a Wilson warbler, migration from near the Arctic Circle to Panama. Sammy didn't leave with the other Wilson warblers so has to find his own way.  He stops and talks to other migrating animals before he reaches his destination. The map at the end of the book shows the route Sammy took and the Warblers' regular route. Additional information about the animals Sammy met on his journey is also provided at the end of the book.  The outstanding feature for me when reading this book are the outstanding illustrations. This would be appropriate for elementary students although it could be enjoyed by all ages.
