About this book

You never see a bird look doubtful, or guilty, or happy, or sad. While we humans, with our face and eyebrows, have a wide range of possibilities to express our emotions, the bird has to do with only one set of beady eyes. It cannot be more stoic. Illustrator Paul Faassen was fascinated by this and started painting hundreds: static and introverted, yet bursting with emotion. With water and color, and without text, Faassen draws complete dialogues between the birds, which make us smile.
