Summary- This book is one with no words. There are pictures and you have to make up the story that goes along with the pictures. These books are great because you can change the ending so many different times. On the first couple pages you can tell by the illustrations that it is fall. The leaves are falling off the trees. A little birdy is lost and a cat find him and helps him find his way home.

Extension Activity- Have the students make up a different ending to the story. You could also have them build bird feeders or even go on a nature hike looking for certain birds and other animals.
