Exploring the calls of various avian species, the gently rhyming narrative of this lovely work of picture-book natural history continually returns to the question of the nesting bird - a robin - and what sound she makes. Her silence reveals something to the attentive listener and reader: namely, that she is sitting upon her eggs. Eventually, of course, there will be something to hear, as the baby birds begin to hatch... I appreciated the structure of author Rita Gray's text in Have You Heard the Nesting Bird?, as it highlights the calls of various birds, using both descriptive text and onomatopoeia, while continually returning to the titular question about the nesting bird. This really drives home the central message here, about nesting birds staying quiet, in order to protect their eggs and baby birds. The afterword, written as an interview with one such bird, provides more detailed information about this subject. The accompanying artwork from Kenard Pak is lovely, created using a subtle earthy palette, and beautifully capturing the delicate charm of each bird depicted. All in all, a sweet little book, one which communicates its informational message in an engaging way, and one that I would recommend to young bird and nature lovers. This story is about two children noticing that all of the birds around them were making different noises except the bird in the nesting tree. The children are very curious and cannot figure out what is wrong with the nesting bird. At the end of the book the children discover that the bird was sitting on her eggs, and now the babies have hatched. The theme of this book to explore and ask questions. It is important for children to know the importance of asking questions and being observant. The illustrations had a cut and paste look to it, which made it eye catching. I also like that at the end of the book there were facts about birds. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

This book has lots and lots of onomatopoeia birdsong, which I think would make it fun read-aloud if you're up for that kind of thing. It's relatively rare to find a good non-fiction picture book for story time, but this would work for preschoolers. ( )
