The Shy Little Bird

'The shy little bird' is a funny children's book by the duo behind 'Stuiver en Pluis in het oude Egypte' and 'Stuiver en Pluis bij de Vikingen'. Illustrator Liset Celie creates a wonderful collection of cheerful birds and Jan Paul Schutten transforms 'hebban olla vogala' into a comical picture book. There is a lot of noise in the forest: all the birds are whistling loudly and building a nest. The little greenfinch is not there yet. He is too shy to ask the female greenfinch if she wants to start a nest with him. He asks the blackbird for help, but with all that chattering she completely misunderstands him! And the jackdaw also hears something completely different from what the blackbird says. And the rook does not understand the jackdaw again... Soon everyone is flying in a long loop through the forest, over the meadow, the estate and to the beach. With the shy greenfinch at the very back. Will everything be alright?
