Book cover for Hummingbird Nest

Stunning, realistic artwork make these poems come alive. The subject? A hummingbird that built a nest in a potted tree on the author’s patio in California. The hummer then laid two eggs, and the poems tell the tale of their hatching, growing up, and taking flight. At the end of the poetry section, the author gives the factual details of the whole story and provides more information about hummers.
