An evocative artist-led picture book superbly illustrated by international illustrator Laurence Cleyet-Merle. The gently descriptive yet informative text takes the form of a story which explains how birds nurture their young. The tale follows the first days and weeks in a nest of young birds as they learn to fly, feed themselves and gain their independence. The lyrical text introduces children to nature in an evocative way, encouraging both a sense of wonder about the natural world and a respect for nature.

Animal-loving pre-schoolers will enjoy 'In The Nest',
By
This review is from: In The Nest (First Discovery) (Hardcover)
I chose this book for my 3-year-old daughter who is so curious about animals especially birds and nests. It is factual and the illustrations are rather sweet. Discusses how a mother bird builds a nest and raises her family with the daddy bird. It is a fairly fast read but not too short, making it perfect for a bedtime story.

Preschool Teacher,
By Tim (Little Rock, AR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: In The Nest (First Discovery) (Hardcover)
This is a great little book to teach preschool children basic information about birds - they eat seeds and bugs, build nests, lay eggs, and develop feathers after birth.
The kids in my class really enjoy this book. It's not a catchy rhyming book, or one with a heart-warming story, but it has good information in it and is short and to the point with really good illustrations.

Great picture book,
This review is from: In The Nest (First Discovery) (Hardcover)
All the picture books on www.suesbooks.info are great bedtime reads. They are all beautifully illustrated, colorful, easy reads, and sturdy, which is important because this book will be read over and over. There is a great deal of information that is found in these books and a great deal that you can improvise and talk to them about.
