Summary

Our Nest


With soothing language and enchanting illustrations, this gentle picture book leads children from the warm nest of their bed to the ever-expanding embrace of the world around them. Snuggled in bed, You're all safe and warm, Like a bird in a nest in a tree. A child tucked in bed, a doe curled in the grass, a boat anchored in the harbor -- everything has a nest. Even the ocean needs the earth to be its nest, while beyond, the universe holds the stars. In this tender poem, Reeve Lindbergh and Jill McElmurry use an ever-widening focus to show children the vast world beyond their beds, and all the love and comfort to be found there.
