Publisher Description: Meet Wordy Birdy, a very chatty bird who talks WAY more than she listens A hilarious new story from Tammi Sauer, beloved author of Nugget & Fang, Chicken Dance, and My Alien. Wordy Birdy LOVES to talk. "Hello, sunrise. Hello, pink sky. Hello, orange sky " But does she love to listen? NOPE. One day, while she's walking through the forest, her gift of the gab gets her into hot water: "That's a pretty tree and that's a pretty tree and that's a pretty danger sign and that's a pretty tree. . . ." Will this inattentive bird walk right into danger? Will her faraway thoughts lead her along a path of doom? It's up to her long-suffering, heard-it-all-before pals Squirrel, Raccoon, and Rabbit to save their distracted friend. Author Tammi Sauer will have kids and their parents in stitches with this funny, fast-paced, lovable caper about the importance of paying attention--and the importance of standing by your friends through thick and thin. And look for the hilarious sequel, Wordy Birdy Meets Mr. Cougarpants Praise for Wordy Birdy A Bank Street College of Education Best Children's Book of the Year "laugh-out-loud funny . . . caregivers will certainly find this chuckleworthy."--Kirkus amusing and entertaining--School Library Journal an entertaining approach to the topic of listening.--Booklist |
