Four friends, three big & one little, are out for a walk. Suddenly, they spot it

...

From Chris Haughton, the multi award-winning author-illustrator of A Bit Lost & Oh No, George!, comes a picture book about a beautiful bird, four friends & plans gone wrong... The friends are out for a walk. Suddenly, they spot it
- a beautiful bird perched high in a tree! They simply must have it &
- ssh!
- they have a plan. So they tip-toe very slowly, nets poised
- ” Ready one.. .ready two.. .ready three.. .GO!” But, at the turn of the page, we find a ridiculous bunch of very tangled characters & a blissfully oblivious bird, flying away. One hilarious foiled plan after another & it`s clear that this goofy gang cannot catch that elusive birdie! But the littlest of this group, a quiet spectator up until now, knows that a bit of kindness can go a long way... Will his friends follow his gentle lead or will they get themselves into even more trouble? The winner of the 2014 Association of Illustrator`s Award for Children`s Books, Chris Haughton`s covetable tale is now in a gorgeous board book edition.
