Little Bird Visits the Big City

A curious little country bird longs to see the bright lights, big city. But is he ready for the hustle and bustle?

Little bird is curious to fly beyond the boundaries of his little forest. Though his mother warns him to stay with his
friends, Little Bird takes off on his own, looking for adventure. When he arrives in the city he doesn't know what to make of all the noises and the commotion. Before long he's feeling frightened and homesick. Luckily for him, his
friends had been checking up on him the whole time. This adorable book shows the universal pull children
feel to go off on their own, even as they long to stay tethered to home.
