Bookroo's summary

Wordy Birdy loves to talk but never listens. Her endless chatter leads her into trouble in the forest, ignoring danger signs along the way. As she babbles on, her friends Squirrel, Raccoon, and Rabbit must step in to save her from impending doom. Will Wordy Birdy learn the importance of listening before it's too late? This hilarious tale explores friendship and the perils of not paying attention.

From the publisher

Wordy Birdy LOVES to talk. “Hello, sunrise. Hello, pink sky. Hello, orange sky!” But does she love to listen? NOPE. One day, while she’s walking through the forest, her gift of the gab gets her into hot water: “That’s a pretty tree and that’s a pretty tree and that’s a pretty danger sign and that’s a pretty tree… .” Will this inattentive bird walk right into danger? Will her faraway thoughts lead her along a path of doom? It’s up to her long-suffering, heard-it-all-before pals Squirrel, Raccoon, and Rabbit to save their distracted friend.

Author Tammi Sauer will have kids and their parents in stitches with this funny, fast-paced, lovable caper about the importance of paying attention—and the importance of standing by your friends through thick and thin.
