Notă biografică
Doris L. Mueller has been a teacher and professor at every level from kindergarten through graduate school. She currently teaches college-level writing courses and a class in Childrens Literature. Her previous books include a picture book, Small Ones Adventure, a middle-grade novel, Marryin Sam, and a biography, M. Jeff Thompson: Missouris Swamp Fox. Doris recalls that whenever she failed to listed to instructions, her mother would tell her an Old English Tale of how, when the magpie tried to teach the birds how to build a beautiful, strong nest like hers, all but one failed to attend to her instructions and went off to build inadequate nests. She retold the story, substituting birds native to the US, and added factual information telling how various birds build their nests. Doris and her husband live on a small lake outside of St. Louis and have many bird visitors at their bird feederswoodpeckers, humming birds, nuthatches, and goldfinches, among others. Their own children are grown and have flown the nest.
Descriere
Long ago, the magpies nests were the envy of all other birds. To help the other birds, Maggie Magpie patiently explained how to build a nest. But some birds were impatient and flew off without listening to all the directions which is why, to this day, birds nests come in all different shapes and sizes. A clever retelling of an old English folktale teaches the importance of careful listening.
