Book 1 of the Consider series, a new picture book series celebrating nature and inviting gratitude.
On a spring day at the birdfeeder, ONE blue jay dives down from way up high, shouting: "Eat! Eat! Eat!" TWO mourning doves scout for seeds on the ground. Next to swoop in are THREE tiny black-capped chickadees, ready for a quick bite. Then we spot FOUR little wrens in a tree--joined by a cardinal to make FIVE. Come count these birds with me!
This lyrical book is a gentle invitation to discover the wonders of nature and the love of God. Jennifer Grants simple text and Julianna Swaneys endearing art will encourage readers to slow down and marvel at the amazing world around them.
