Nesting

Henry Cole, illustrated by Henry Cole

A pair of robins builds a nest, lays eggs, waits for them to hatch, and cares for the young birds until they join a larger group of robins. The birds repeatedly bring food to their fledglings and defend them from a hungry snake. Minimal text and realistic pen-and-ink illustrations trace the nesting cycle, the passage of time, and the challenges the family encounters before flying away.
