Summary:
It’s a big day up in the tree that Mama bird shares with her baby. Mama bird thinks Baby bird is finally ready to leave the nest and learn to fly so he can migrate south with the rest of their flock. But Baby bird isn’t so sure. Can’t his mother keep bringing him worms in their nest? Can’t he migrate in a hot air balloon instead? Or perhaps a car?
This silly wordless picture book will keep young readers giggling as Baby bird figures out that he must flap his wings and learn to fly—whether he likes it or not!
Tori, third grade: It was a good book overall. The pictures were awesome. Although the title was short, it was awesome.
Noah, third grade: I thought (the book) was awesome!
Kalan, third grade: I thought it was really good because it was a lot of fun. It was super funny.
Aubrie, third grade: The pictures sort of told me what was going on.
Bella, third grade: The pictures are good.
Kendra, adult: The story is easy to follow with no words. The body language of the birds is very expressive, and the mama bird well illustrates the frustration of dealing with a stubborn child.
Charity, kindergarten: It's about the bird that fell and how it got out of the nest. It thought about different ways of flying. It thought about flying with snow skis on, and that it can go to Florida with a train. The baby bird could fly after all!
