Mama Built a Little Nest

This engaging story in rhyme illustrates how fourteen different birds build or find unique nests to raise their babies. Colourful illustrations accompany easy-to-read text, with bold text for the storyline and text in smaller type to provide additional, factual information on the nests and species of birds. This appealing picture book would be at home in primary science lessons on animal adaptations, but also can be used in art units on illustration techniques and in ELA units when exploring rhyme or literary elements.
