Saturday I received three more books from Eerdman's Books for Young Readers, so today I'm going to let you know about the first one - Consider the Birds by Jennifer Grant and illustrated by Julianna Swaney.
Favorite Features -
- Simple text encourages basic counting and a love for beautiful birds.
- Illustrations are fantastic - the best part of this book is the illustrations!
Eerdman's Books for Young Readers, says, "Book 1 of the Consider series, a new picture book series celebrating nature and inviting gratitude.
On a spring day at the birdfeeder, ONE blue jay dives down from way up high, shouting: “Eat! Eat! Eat!” TWO mourning doves scout for seeds on the ground. Next to swoop in are THREE tiny black-capped chickadees, ready for a quick bite. Then we spot FOUR little wrens in a tree—joined by a cardinal to make FIVE. Come count these birds with me!
This lyrical book is a gentle invitation to discover the wonders of nature and the love of God. Jennifer Grant’s simple text and Julianna Swaney’s endearing art will encourage readers to slow down and marvel at the amazing world around them."
Consider the Birds is a lovely book and one to enjoy with the little ones you love. After reading, consider taking a walk outside to see how many of these birds you are able to find!
