In this charming book, children will delight in the sounds animals make as they come together to help a young bird find a friend.
It's spring and everywhere birds are calling out to each other. But one bird has forgotten which sound to make. He tries "Woof," and meets a dog, who encourages him to try "Oink," with the expected result. Moo, Hee-Haw, Baa, Meow--each successive call adds another animal friend to the page. Will the young bird find another bird friend? As young readers are introduced to each type of animal and their sounds, Hendrik Jonas's clever illustrations grow increasingly crowded. The result is a beautiful celebration of friendship that will delight young children everywhere.

MEDIA REVIEWS
"Jonas renders the animals with expressive eyes, streaky color lines, and collage elements. Along with the cast of kind barnyard animals, readers will enthusiastically take part in this gentle readaloud, in which the work of finding one's voice can also mean finding friends." -Publishers Weekly "The Song of Spring is adorable and unexpectedly funny" -Mom Read It
