Brief summary A bird loses it's mother. The bird searches all over town to find his mother in many unusual places. Until the bird's mother finds him right where she left him, in the nest.
Annotation - The worry kids have about being lost is addressed in a easy manner by having the bird ask everyone and thing if they are his mother. The bird is scared but found right where he was supposed to be all along.
Age appropriateness 3-6
Connection to six early literacy skills
Narrative Skills - the story keeps the reader going and guessing what might happen next.

Reading is best used here, although this gives parents a chance to talk to their child about how they should not leave where they are so they don't get lost.
Opinion - This is a good book that children seem to really like, perhaps because it plays upon a fear they have in real life and the result is positive.

A sweet story for a young child. When a bird is born and doesn't see his mother he goes looking for her. He sees all kinds of animals and objects and is finally united with his mother, back at the nest where she left him.
