In a pasture near the sea, a flock of egrets lives with a herd of cows. Each day when the flock flies out to explore, one young egret stays behind. He is afraid to leave because he might get lost and never find his dear friend Cow again. But Cow knows there are wonderful sights to be seen and is determined that her friend will explore like the other birds. This warm and witty story about adventure and friendship is the perfect book for any young reader facing separation anxiety or new-experience jitters.

A seed is like a little package - it has everything that it needs to make a new plant. Learn how tiny seeds can grow into big, leafy foliage.

From tongue-in-cheek sonnets to lyrical free verse, this collection of poems explores the many kinds of home animals make for themselves. Readers will meet better-known animal dwellings like the spiderweb and the bird''s nest as well as the more unusual: a fawn''s thicket bed, a hare''s bowl-shaped ground nest, and a sea anemone''s ever-changing tide pool home. Readers experience different habitats—desert, grasslands, shoreline, wetland, and woodland—and the animals that build their dwellings there. Jamie Hogan''s expressive line art complements this clever anthology. Back matter provides more information on the highlighted habitats, poetic forms, and the writing process.
