Evaluation Statement:
Eagle Boy is a wonderful tale for children to read. It includes beautiful and colorful
illustrations. The story promotes generosity,
kindness to animals, and forgiveness while keeping children interested and
entertained.
The cover of this book is very striking. I love how the Eagle takes up more than the whole frame. It definitely adds an imposing feeling and adds to the idea of the animal's strength.
