description: Sixteen fresh and funny poems welcome a new batch of robins to the world!Food FightJumble jostle rumble squirm;Dad has landed with a worm.Game of tug-of-war begins--Biggest bossy baby wins.Mama's a skillful architect constructing a sturdy nest while Dad's a champion turf defender. And those hatchlings! Such fluffs of plump perfection!Katie Hesterman's vibrant verse celebrates this awesome circle of bird life as we follow a pair of robin parents from nest-building and egg-laying to raising their hungry hatchlings and finally sending off their flying fledglings. Sergio Ruzzier's brilliant candy-colored art pays tribute to all these stages of a robin's life cycle reminding us that while robins may be common they are also extraordinary!
