Other Books in this Series

The third in the adorable, STEM non­fic­tion pic­ture book series that encour­ages very young read­ers to learn—through gen­tle inter­ac­tiv­i­ty and play—about the ani­mals who share their world

Flit, flap, flut­ter! You might have seen a robin fly­ing over­head or heard one singing in the trees. Did you know that robins tidy them­selves up, teach their babies to find food, and are almost ful­ly grown in just two weeks? From birth to first flut­ter and beyond, dis­cov­er all that goes into being a robin in this charm­ing pic­ture book, the third in the Meet Your World series.

This play­ful and infor­ma­tive series invites you to take a clos­er look at the amaz­ing ani­mals that live right along­side you in rur­al, sub­ur­ban, and urban land­scapes across North Amer­i­ca. In each book, words and art inspire you to act out ani­mal actions that are not so dif­fer­ent from your own habits. And robust back­mat­ter offers even more facts and fun. From the ani­mals’ fam­i­lies and foods to their envi­ron­ments and behav­iors, let’s meet your world!
