Charm at bedtime

Baby robins living in their nest outside a little boy's bedroom window watch him while he watches them. These inquisitive baby robins ask their mother questions about his actions, and she patiently explains. Their questions and reactions reflect their ideas of good food and entertaining activities. A marvelously cozy bedtime read, the reader and listener will be ready to snuggle in the covers and sleep as they witness each baby robin getting settled for the night. Vibrant illustrations support the charm of the text. Impossible not to smile and give your child a hug in response. Excellent for nature lovers and Spring in the curriculum.
