While a farmer tends his field of wheat, six hungry crows watch and wait in a nearby tree. When the wheat ripens, the farmer builds a scarecrow to frighten them off, but these ingenious crows are not so easily scared.

And once again he shows us that compromise can work magic.

This was a cute story, and the kids liked it. My niece saw the cover and exclaimed, "Oh good! Leo Lionni! This should be good!" The kids like crows, too, so they did enjoy this story that featured them.
I was unfamiliar with this Lionni title until I received this reissue. Love Lionni!!!
