Amazon Description

Jess and Grandad return in this delightful follow-up to the popular The Wild Woods. "When I go birdwatching, things happen," Grandad says. Sometimes, he says, the birds draw him while he's drawing them. Sometimes, he says, the birds help him find their names in his bird book. "Birds are amazing," says Grandad. But Jess isn't sure. So one day she goes birdwatching with Grandad to see for herself! - Simon James's many bestselling titles include Dear Greenpeace and Leon and Bob, a Smarties Book Prize Silver Medal Winner. - Simon James's books often contain a message about respecting and caring for our natural world, and this is no exception. - Whimsical, witty and poignant, this is a wonderful follow-up to The Wild Woods.

One Potato Review

After the histrionics of Baby Brains, a peaceful return to the woods, and to the quiet wonders of an artist’s imagination. A nice little story about a girl and her grandfather that never panders to either one of them, or to us. Plus: Penguins!
