Review
From the creator of Miss Spider (Little Miss Spider, Miss Spider's New Car, Miss Spider's Tea Party, etc.) comes a new series featuring a sweet little bird. On the verge of independence, little bird, Biddle bird takes the plunge out of the nest and into the world to find a snack. But what's good to eat? Something squashy and salty like a slug? Something crunchy and sweet like a pea pod? "Is a flower a good meal? Will a bug be a treat? Don't gobble up tidbits you find in the street!"
From a protective distance, the proud mommy bird watches as her baby begins to pull a meal together for the first time. Readers get the feeling she will be there in a flash if her little bird ventures into the danger zone--for example, when he remembers never to choose meals "that are bigger than you!" But meanwhile, she's content to observe her "dear little big Biddle bird." Young readers will vicariously feel little bird's sense of accomplishment, especially as they begin exploring their own new horizons. David Kirk's shiny, in-your-face illustrations burst off the page, familiar to fans of Miss Spider, but almost too overwhelming for those who prefer kinder, gentler images. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
About the Author
The uncommonly unique imagination of David Kirk has an equally uncommon source. "I found a small copy of The Gnomes' Almanac by a little-known Viennese author Ida Bohtta Morpugo. It was a cutout book simply subtitled: A Book for Children. In it, the pictures and verse about bugs, butterflies, and mice really came to life." That got him drawing and writing. Before that he made children's toys by hand. "I love making stories. The bookmaking process is a liberation for me from the years I toiled to produce handmade items. I think the life of a children's book author is bliss." Kirk lives in upstate New York, with his wife and three daughters.
