Overview
Baby Bird lives with Mama Bird, Papa Bird, and a lot of worry.
Mostly Baby Bird worries when Papa Bird comes home. Sometimes he comes home too loud, or too quiet, or too . . . different. When all the birds in the tree decide to host a field day, Baby Bird hatches a plan. If he can win field day, Papa Bird will come home happy . . . right? With the help of Mama and all his neighbors, Baby Bird flies highest, builds a practically perfect nest, and catches the fastest worm! And Papa Bird doesn't even notice. Baby Bird is devastated. Was all his hard work for nothing? Mama and all his neighbors help him to understand that he is surrounded by love. And what's more—he found a flock who will always support him.
This is a story of found family and encouragement for any kid with a parent who may not be able to be fully present in their lives. Includes a reader’s note by Ellen Braaten, PhD, with more information on the effect on children living in unpredictable homes and ways to help them cope.
