Life was peaceful on the small Philippine island of Luzon. The men fished, the women cooked, the children played games, and the birds sang. Everyone knew it was time for bed when they heard the birds' good-night song.
Then Tuko arrived. Tuko, the gecko, bellowed his name five times every time he ate—day or night. Everyone was miserable from lack of sleep. That is, until Haribon the eagle devised a plan to trick Tuko into leaving for good. Tuko and the Birds is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.
When Tuko the gecko moves in with the birds on Mount Pinatubo, they stop singing and the people in the village below become disoriented about time.

Tuko and the Birds: A Tale from the Philippines
It's a nice enough story from a different culture. But the illustrations are merely there. When the text says "the astonished birds" -- the birds do not quite look astonished. And there is not quite enough detail to keep one engaged in the pictures.
