Purchase options and add-ons
When a mother bird's egg starts to jump, she hurries off to make sure she has something for her little one to eat. But as soon as she's gone, out pops the baby bird. He immediately sets off to find his mother, but not knowing what she looks like makes it a challenge. The little hatchling is determined to find his mother, even after meeting a kitten, a hen, a dog, and a Snort. The timeless message of the bond between mother and child makes this abridged, super-simple edition of P. D. Eastman's Are You My Mother? a must for beginning readers.
Bright and Early Board Books are super sturdy, simplified board book editions of classic Beginner Books. First launched in 1996, they have introduced millions of toddlers to beloved books from Dr. Seuss, P. D. Eastman, and other author-illustrators, in a format just right for young readers!
