"Whose Nest is Best?" is the question this little lift-the-flap board book asks the reader. Birds and their style of nest building are simply and clearly presented. Children will have a hard time answering this question because each nest is perfectly suited for the birds who built it. 

Stemple's book is darling! Each picture is bright with surprising graphic patterns and details. Each parent bird stands on its nest, which nest then folds over to reveal the eggs or chicks inside. Young children will love this book. They will open the flaps over and over while learning the birds' names and nest types.
