Peek behind the curtain of the glorious musicality of birds in Bird Rehearsal, a picture book about a raucous romp through the neighborhood, told entirely in birdsong from the award-winning author/illustrator team Jonah Winter and Stacy Innerst.
When the night is done,
and the sky begins to lighten,
the bird rehearsal begins.
It’s not meant for us, but here we are,
every day, listening . . .

***STARRED REVIEW***
"To go with art that rewards looking and then looking again, the all-birdsong narrative, read aloud, creates a kind of infectiously joyful mouth music...Definitely for the birds, in a wonderful way."
—Kirkus
***STARRED REVIEW***
"Readers will delight in sounding out the creatively conceptualized chirps and squawks, and a hilarious concluding cast list offers identification of the noisy neighbors. Dazzling collaged illustrations are a glorious mishmash of bright colors and varied textures...A rambunctious read-aloud."
—Booklist
