Finding Robin Redbreast
(Picture Lions)
978-0006630029, RRP £2.95, Paperback
Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant
A very pleasant, chummy story about Kate and her daddy going birdwatching and looking out for a robin. There is a different bird on each page, with a flap to lift and find out which kind it is. The idea is a good one and will be fun to use (sturdy too, although with reservation at nursery or playgroup), teaching children to search the page for detail, anticipate what they may find and then see if it is what they are looking for, which at the end of course it is.
Probably I will be accused of being too fussy, but I do think it is a pity that the final picture of the robin doesn't look real. The ones I know and love have brown feathers; unfortunately this one has grey!
