Publisher's Synopsis
One day, Mr. Mockingbird came home and found Mrs. Mockingbird sitting in the middle of their nest with her feathers all puffed up and singing the happiest song he'd ever heard. She lifted one feather and allowed Mr. Mockingbird to peek into the bottom of the nest. One perfect little egg was nestled down in the softest part of the nest. Their dreams had come true - within a few weeks they would be having a little baby mockingbird!With 30 rich, imaginative, water-color illustrations, veteran writer and artist Joan Hildebrand Zobel creates a loving, vibrant, supportive community around newborn Maggie the Mockingbird and her adoring parents and relatives.
