The trouble a bird finds when it lands to rest... too close to the wrong nest.

As this nest belonged to a cockatoo, and soon the tree filled with more than a few.

Then the egg cracked, the chick tumbled through...

What will it do... this little bird of blue?

Told in playful rhymes with gentle repetition, The bird that FLEW and the angry cockatoo is a Blue Fork Rhymes story about friendship, change, and helping others. Perfect for ages 3-7, it brings early learning poetry to life in a fun, read-aloud adventure.
