Gray presents each bird with its distinctive call. But the children below don’t understand why the nesting bird, a robin, is so silent. What’s this? Another robin coming? Pak’s atmospheric watercolors illustrate each type of bird and set the stage for the final reveal: baby birds! A page included at the end answers further questions about nesting birds for curious readers.
