Beautifully illustrated and charming rhyming text make this little gem a must-have for every non-fiction collection. Young readers will be surprised that birds are not the only animal that builds nests. Children will discover animals they may never have heard of before like mudskippers, Siamese fighting fish, and voles plus twenty-one other animals.
A helpful guide is included discussing which animals nest in mud or water or trees, and a page about nest safety and what readers can do to insure animals and their nests are not damaged.
Gorgeous illustrations on end papers make this book a real treasure. Ramona Kaulitzski is likely to be in the running come awards season.
This picture book is a lovely Christmas gift for the kid who loves animals.
Highly recommended ages 2 and up. This book is great for introducing a unit about animals and their habitats.
