You Are a Robin! cover

Flit, flap, flutter! You might have seen a robin flying overhead or heard one singing in the trees. Did you know that robins tidy themselves up, teach their babies to find food, and are almost fully grown in just two weeks? From birth to first flutter and beyond, discover all that goes into being a robin in this charming picture book, the third in the Meet Your World series. This playful and informative series invites you to take a closer look at the amazing animals that live right alongside you in rural, suburban, and urban landscapes across North America. In each book, words and art inspire you to act out animal actions that are not so different from your own habits. And robust backmatter offers even more facts and fun. From the animals’ families and foods to their environments and behaviours, let’s meet your world!

"The Meet Your World series, which opened with You Are a Honey Bee! and You Are a Raccoon!, offers young children information about animals that they might see in their yard or neighborhood park. The engaging, second-person narrative provides intriguing facts without becoming too detailed, while further information and a basic glossary appear in the back matter. With bright, lively illustrations, here’s an inviting introduction to robins, one of North America’s most familiar birds." —Booklist
