Produktbeschreibung

Long ago, when the world was young, the magpies' nests were the envy of all other birds. To help the other birds, Maggie Magpie patiently explained how to build a nest. But some birds were impatient and flew off without listening to all the directions, which is why, to this day, birds' nests come in all different shapes and sizes. This clever retelling of an old English folktale teaches the importance of careful listening. All Sylvan Dell titles feature free educational resources at www.SylvanDellPublishing.com, including the "For Creative Minds" sections and additional teaching activities. The "For Creative Minds" educational section of The Best Nest includes: Bird Fun Facts, Bird Math, Is it Injured?, A Match the Nest Activity with nest information for: Magpie, Killdeer, Whip-poor-will, Screech-owl, Brewer's Blackbird, Starling, Common grackle, Meadowlark, Robin, Mourning Dove, Northern Oriole.
