Written by Margaret Wise Brown, Illustrated by Greg Pizzoli
From Margaret Wise Brown, the bestselling author of classics like Goodnight Moon and The Runaway Bunny, comes a never-before-published story about a little bird’s first journey, brought to life by Geisel Award-winning illustrator Greg Pizzoli.
It’s time for a little bird to fly away to the north, the south, the east, and the west.
Which direction will she like best?
This book definitely has a theme of “there’s no place like home.” A story of a bird out exploring the world but coming home in the end. It can also be used to talk about migration. I felt it was lacking something, but younger kids will enjoy it.
