description: A little bird just wants some peace and quietbut hes about to get a whole lot more than he bargained for in this clever picture book debut in the tradition of Jon Klassens I Want My Hat Back.Its a beautiful sunny day in the swamp when a little yellow bird settles down on a rockonly to be interrupted as first a heron then a frog then a turtle ask to sit on the rock with him. As each animal says pardon me the little birds replies get grumpier: I suppose I cant stop you.Its already crowded dont you think?Sure the entire swamps here already. Why shouldnt you be too? When a fox comes by the bird finally loses his cool. But it just so happens that fox showed up for a reason and the little birds outburst leads to a surprise ending youll want to read again and again.
