From the New York Timesābestselling author: āGreat for read-alouds . . . [A] unique, clever book that young readers will love.ā āSchool Library Journal
Itās time to fly home for dinner! In this witty picture book from Mac Barnett, a Caldecott Honor and E.B. White Read Aloud Award winner, a mother bird gives the bird next to her a message for little Peter. But passing messages on a telephone line isnāt as simple as it sounds. Each subsequent bird understands Mamaās message according to its own very particular hobbies, personality, and situation. Will Peter ever get home for dinner?
This uproarious interpretation of a favorite childrenās game will get everyone giggling and is sure to lead to countless rereads.
