Description
Austin awakes in his cozy nest, ready for his breakfast to be delivered. But soon he is falling-fast-and finds himself all alone on the ground, except for a bush. He curls up under the bush, waiting for his mother to save him, only to discover he is now on his own.
Based on a true story, this is a classic tale of tough love and the baby robin who braved it.
Letitia Burton is the award-winning author of Soar and Guthrie and Gretzky.

Letitia B. Burton-or "B.B.," as her young readers call her-believes that one of the most important things that a parent can do is read to their child for at least thirty minutes a day. It was a practice that she started with her three children after receiving this wonderful advice from Blanche Mansfield, then head of the lower school at the Nightingale-Bamford School in New York City. It is through sharing these stories that parents and children can together travel to new and interesting worlds and develop shared compassion for the characters. Letitia continued to read to each of her children daily until they fired her, one by one, at some point when they were in middle school.She lives in Southport, Connecticut, with her husband, three children, their two bunnies, two chickens, and beloved yellow lab Shesky, whom she now reads to.She is the author of the award-winning book Soar: The Incredible Journey of Hendrix and Ryder and Guthrie & Gretzky. She is committed to donating a percentage of all profits from the sales of her books to Audubon and other organizations working to protect the environment.
