Daddy's Bedtime Bird Stories

"Daddy's Bedtime Bird Stories" by Mary Graham Bonner is a sweet compilation of tales from a time gone by designed to charm young readers with stories of feathered friends. It presents amusing bird characters such as Mr. Owl, goldfinches, and robins as they navigate playful escapades, personal evolution, and communal connections, all highlighting the significance of friendship, teamwork, and the delight found in the natural world. Initially, we meet Old Mr. Owl, who, with the aid of fairies, ambitiously sets out to pen a book, revealing his comical exchanges and inflated sense of knowledge, but eventually realizing the value of modesty and acknowledging others' contributions. Further stories recount the charming antics of woodpeckers creating music, robins launching a spring store, and a medley of bird personalities encountering both lighthearted and touching scenarios, reinforcing the endearing and occasionally impish essence of birds within a lively, imaginative realm.
