A rollicking picture book that celebrates finding warmth and shelter during a springtime storm.(goodreads summary)
Mama bird borrowed the bears hair from the lair for her nest. A sudden storm sends the sweet bird family tumbling down to the ground and into the bears lair. The groggy bears awake from their sleep to unexpectedly find the birds in their home. The two mamas check each other out and decide it is all good to share the warm and cozy lair together. The rhyming text flowed easily during reading with no stumble on words. The illustrations are in bright colors and the animals are so sweet. The end of the book has an author note about birds and an easy project with pine cones and cotton balls you can make and share with the birds for nesting. This is a cute story that would be a great read aloud for springtime and an easy project to do for the little ones. I think this is a "just right book" for ages 3-5.~
