Summary/Back cover:
Spike wakes up one morning in a very grumpy mood. perhaps if he had a new nest he would feel more cheerful.

Wise Owl invites Spike to stay with him - but his hooting keeps Spike awake all night. Other animals offer to help. The green frogs even suggest he shares their lily pads. But there is something wrong with everywhere he stays.

Feeling cold and miserable, Spike finally realises which is the best nest for him...

Review:
This book instantly caught my attention as the illustrations are so cute! Spike the sparrow is adorable as is Wise Owl.

All the different animals appeals to my little one as he is a bit of an animal-nut and he delights in pointing out all the different types to me. This is a clear, straight forward tale about appreciating what you have, even if you have to go through all the other options first.

My rating: 3.7 out of 5
