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 ofWaking 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. - Simon and Schuster
