    A bird tries to keep his spot to himself only to discover that spot is not so safe.
  • Baker & Taylor
    Settling down on a rock to enjoy a calm, sunny day in the swamp, a little yellow bird becomes increasingly grumpy when, one-by-one, other animals interrupt his peace as they come to sit near him, until a fox with a sneaky agenda causes the bird to lose his temper. By the illustrator of Waking Up Is Hard to Do.
  • Simon and Schuster
    A little bird just wants some peace and quiet'but he's about to get a whole lot more than he bargained for in this clever picture book debut, in the tradition of Jon Klassen's I Want My Hat Back.

    It's a beautiful, sunny day in the swamp when a little yellow bird settles down on a rock'only to be interrupted as first a heron, then a frog, then a turtle ask to sit on the rock with him. As each animal says 'pardon me," the little bird's replies get grumpier:

    'I suppose I can't stop you.'
    'It's already crowded, don't you think?'
    'sure, the entire swamp's here already. Why shouldn't you be, too?'

    When a fox comes by, the bird finally loses his cool. But it just so happens that fox showed up for a reason, and the little bird's outburst leads to a surprise ending you'll want to read again and again.

    “I suppose I can’t stop you.”
    “It’s already crowded, don’t you think?”
    “Sure, the entire swamp’s here already. Why shouldn’t you be, too?”
